</ul>
Does the Ambco 1000+ offer dual testing modes?
<p>Yes, the Ambco 1000+ Pure Tone Audiometer features <strong>dual testing capabilities</strong> to provide flexibility for efficient screening and comprehensive assessment:</p>

<ol>
<li><strong>Standard Pure Tone Air Conduction Threshold Test</strong>
<ul>
<li><strong>Purpose:</strong> Detailed hearing threshold assessment.</li>
<li><strong>Intensity Range:</strong> 0 to 90 dB (in 5 dB steps).</li>
<li><strong>Frequencies Covered:</strong> 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 6000, and 8000 Hz.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>OTO-SCREEN Sequential Screening Mode</strong>
<ul>
<li><strong>Purpose:</strong> Rapid, microprocessor-controlled screening designed to minimize operator fatigue and ensure consistent, accurate results.</li>
<li><strong>Screening Level Range:</strong> 10 to 35 dB (in 5 dB steps).</li>
<li><strong>Sequential Frequencies:</strong> 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 Hz.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
Is the audiometer CPT compliant?
<p>Yes, the Ambco 1000+ Audiometer is fully compliant and meets or exceeds the performance requirements for professional hearing assessment and billing.</p>

<p>It specifically supports:</p>

<ul>
<li><strong>CPT Code 92551:</strong> Screening Test, pure tone, air only.</li>
