How Much Will Medicare Pay for AAC Assessments and Training — SLP Services?
If an SLP works in a Medicare Qualified setting and thus is a “Qualified Provider,” Medicare will pay for an AAC assessment and for AAC Training. The costs allowed are variable by State and are arrived at by a complicated formula. Current Medicare fees are posted on the ASHA website http://www.asha.org AAC Assessments and Training are now assigned G codes (which is a billing code). G codes represent “new billing codes.” After awhile, AAC Assessments and Training will be assigned standard codes (or CPT codes).
