OK - I responded to a few Craigs List posts and got a bite from an audiologist - who I am meeting with tomorrow morning.

Does anyone bill for this specialty?

I've done a little bit of research on it. From what I understand they mostly bill for diagnostic services. But I can't tell if E/M services are billable. It looks like Medicare won't pay for them for an audiologist...is that right?

Any tips out there?

I've done audiology billing.  Never billed E&M codes, just the ones specific for audiology.  Wasn't really difficult.

Thanks Michele!

We signed a contract today - and I'm very excited to learn more about this specialty.

Thanks! It doesn't seem as scary as I thought it might be.
