The Academy and volunteers from the Practice Policy Advisory Committee (PPAC), American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), American Academy of Neurology, American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, and American Clinical Neurophysiology Society have worked together to establish and value the codes.
