The new "hot topic" issue at my work for the past couple of months has been G-Codes. No not "guy code" (as my teasing boyfriend rhetorically asked). These are the new codes that will need to be utilized for successful billing and reimbursement for Medicare patients - specifically part B and a few other exceptions to the rules such as observation status patients in the hospital. My hospital was very fortunate to have the support of our managers in our continued education on this topic. Today many of our SLP's were able to participate in ASHA's Webinar regarding G-Codes.

The author discusses the need and the benefit research would give this area of speech-language pathology.

You're a what?!

I think every Speech-Language Pathologist has had that moment where they are introducing themselves or being introduced and that time comes where you say what you do for a living… Me: ”I’m a Speech-Language Pathologist.” Communication Partner: “You’re a what?” Me: “A Speech-Language Pathologist.” Communication Partner: “Oh a speech teacher!” That dialogue could go on and on, I have heard many variations such as: “so you teach /r/’s,” “oh, you fix hearing!” “I hated my speech teacher” “I loved my speech teacher!”   and… “what is that?” So my hope for this post is to help clear up what a Speech-Language Pathologist does! Speech-Language Pathologists provide prevention services, screenings, assessments/evaluation, consultations, diagnosis, treatment, intervention, management, counseling, and collaboration involving various communicative disorders and swallowing disorders (dysphagia). Within our scope of practice we work with people of all ...
