Pediatric Neurologist Billing for TOVA

I am wondering how to most effectively code a claim for the TOVA testing. We are not neuro-psychological, we are strictly pediatric neurology. So from a medical perspective what are the best CPT® and ICD-9 codes to use for billing this service as medical doctors?

Example: to assess for ADHD, the essential elements are a clinical interview, pediatric/medical examination, and validated behavioral rating scales. Generally, only when the findings from these key areas are inconclusive would additional psychological testing be administered. The T.O.V.A. typically requires about 40-50 minutes for administration, interpretation to patients and/or caregivers, and documentation.
