Another option is to use P09.6 (a bnormal findings on neonatal screening for neonatal hearing loss) for an initial neonatal screen on an infant 28 days old or younger. Some audiologists have also been successful using "Z" codes."Z" codes represent "factors influencing health status and contact with health services" within the ICD-10-CM code set.

If your child failed a hearing screening, the first thing to do is to get your child's hearing tested by an audiologist who specializes in evaluating children. Sometimes the problem is due to an ear infection – sometimes it is permanent. Only testing will confirm hearing ability and the cause if there is a problem.
Audiologists should use CPT 92570, since acoustic reflex decay testing is always done in conjunction with tympanometry and acoustic reflex threshold testing. Audiologists billing 92567, 92568, and acoustic reflex decay test (formerly 92569) on the same day should now use 92550.
Hearing Screening: 92551 “Screening test, pure tone, air only” and 92552 “Pure tone audiometry (threshold), air only” are the most commonly used hearing screen codes used by pediatricians.

Screenings are not true hearing tests; they are a pass-fail challenge to determine if there is a possibility of hearing loss. If you fail a hearing screening, there's a good chance you have hearing loss. True hearing tests determine your ability to hear across a range of frequencies and tones.
If your baby does not pass the hearing screening at birth, it does not necessarily mean that she is deaf or hard of hearing.

The following answers regarding ICD-10-CM (International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) are based on general coding principles and best practices as well as guidance from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). Audiologists and speech-language pathologists (SLPs) are responsible for verifying coding and billing policies with their specific payers.
Codes designated as "unspecified" indicate that that there is insufficient information in the medical record to assign a more specific code. Codes designated as "other" indicate that sufficient documentation exists to assign a diagnosis, but no code exists for the specific condition.
The diagnosis code for apraxia is R48.2. Generally, codes in the R00-R99 series are used for organic disorders. SLPs are able to diagnose apraxia, and, as such, R48.2 is one of the few codes in the "R" series of codes that can be assigned by an SLP without the patient having a secondary medical condition.
