Access to speech, language, and hearing services depends on a strong, supported workforce.

The public comment period is now open on an issue that could impact recognition of SLPs and audiologists as professional degrees—and participation matters.

PSHA has made it easy to act (just a few clicks!), and we’ll be submitting a formal association letter reflecting member input from the start of this effort.

🗣️ Speak up. Advocate. Protect our professions.

Thanks to sustained advocacy from ASHA advocates, Congress included a key provision in H.R. 7148, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026, to extend Medicare telehealth authority for audiologists and SLPs through December 31, 2027.

The move means Medicare Part B beneficiaries can continue to access covered audiology and SLP services via telehealth for the next two years, which importantly, was delinked from government funding deadlines. This lowers the possibility of future lapses in this authority resulting from funding disagreements between the parties.

While the extension through 2027 is an important step, our ultimate objective is permanent coverage of our members and their services. Without congressional action, patients and providers will once again face uncertainty in the future.

💬 PSHA Update on CPT® Code 92507

Yesterday, PSHA’s Private Practice Committee met with ASHA to discuss questions and concerns surrounding CPT® code 92507.

Here’s what we know:
• 92507 remains active and valid
• The code was flagged through the AMA’s routine review process due to increased utilization
• ASHA is actively involved, representing SLPs and submitting real-world practice data
• Those working with the AMA are bound by standard nondisclosure agreements — breaking them would jeopardize SLPs’ future seat at the table

We understand why this process is making clinicians nervous. 92507 is a broad “umbrella” code, and any future changes could impact reimbursement — either positively or negatively. At this time, no outcome has been determined.

Our guidance remains clear: continue billing ethically and accurately, and let’s stay united. Division within our profession only weakens our ability to advocate against policies or legislation that could harm SLPs and the clients we serve.
