CPT 92526 covers treatment of swallowing dysfunction and/or oral function for feeding — the primary code for pediatric feeding therapy sessions.

Untimed: one unit per session.

Using 92526 on superbills

Use for feeding/swallowing-focused sessions; use 92507 when the session targets speech/language goals.

FAQ

Is feeding therapy reimbursable out of network?

Often yes when tied to a medical diagnosis (e.g., dysphagia R13.11). A complete superbill with diagnosis and CPT 92526 gives families what payers need.
