I remember 92550 being mentioned in class, but I don't think it applies here. I feel like it’s for something else entirely.

I'm a little unsure about this one. The question doesn't provide a lot of detail, and there are a few different CPT codes related to hearing tests. I'll have to carefully review the code descriptions to make sure I select the right one.

I'm confident that the Omni-Channel with Skills-Based Routing is the way to go here. It allows the agents to be trained in specific channels while still providing a consistent experience across all the supported channels.
