The American Medical Association (AMA) released the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) 2027 code set on September 9, 2026. The release includes 299 new codes, 74 revisions, and 80 deletions across healthcare. For speech-language pathologists (SLPs), it's the first time the codes replacing CPT 92507 have their official 5-digit numbers.
The structure itself isn't new. Until now, SLPs, billing teams, and software vendors have planned around placeholder numbers. The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) has since updated its resource page with the official codes.
CPT 92507 remains in effect through December 31, 2026. Starting January 1, 2027, it's replaced by 10 timed codes across 5 treatment areas. Each area has a base code for the initial 30 minutes of one-on-one treatment and an add-on code for each additional 15 minutes.
CPT 92508 stays in place as a stand-alone, untimed code for group treatment of 2 or more patients.
The code numbers are now set, but several pieces are still to come.
Medicare payment: The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is expected to publish the final 2027 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule in early November. That rule will set final payment values for the new codes.
Coding edits: National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) and Medically Unlikely Edit (MUE) guidance for the new codes is expected in the last quarter of 2026. It will affect which codes can be billed together on the same day.
GSLPP: CMS has separately proposed a Medicare-specific pediatric code, GSLPP. It came from CMS, not the AMA CPT process, and its status will be decided in the final rule.
Payer adoption: Medicaid programs and commercial payers may adopt the new codes on their own timelines.
No. The new codes take effect January 1, 2027. Continue billing 92507 for dates of service through December 31, 2026.
The 10 new codes are 92654 through 92663. They form 5 base and add-on pairs covering fluency, speech sound production, language, combined speech sound production and language, and voice, upper airway, and resonance disorders.
The official descriptors are in the AMA's CPT 2027 code set. ASHA also lists them on its resource page for the new code family.
