CPT
For this procedure, we’d code 35471 for “transluminal balloon angioplasty, percutaneous; renal or other visceral artery,” and we’d add the modifier -66 for “surgical team.” So we’d end up with 35471-66. Source: http://www.medicalbillingandcoding.org/cpt-modifiers/ Physical Status Modifier (For Anesthesia) Anesthesia procedures have their own special set of modifiers, which are simple and correspond to the condition of the patient as the anesthesia is administered. These codes are: - P1 – a normal, healthy patient - P2 – a patient with mild systemic disease - P3 – a patient with severe systemic disease - P4 – a patient with severe systemic disease that is a constant threat to life - P5 – a moribund patient who is not expected to survive without the operation - P6 – a declared brain-dead patient whose organs are being removed for donor purposes These are relatively straightforward, but let’s look at an example that will also use some of the CPT modifiers we learned just a minute ago. Let’s return to that angioplasty example. The patient needs to be anesthetized before undergoing this procedure, so we turn to the Anesthesia section of the CPT codebook and find the code 00216 for “vascular procedures.” Now, kidney problems notwithstanding, our patient is in good health, so we’d add the –P1 modifier to this anesthesia code, and end up with 00216-P1.

Men with one or more risk factors should consult a doctor about whether to begin screenings earlier. When having a screening discussion, decision aids and provisions should be documented in the medical record, particularly when the patient decides against screening. Codes for reporting prostate cancer screening using HCPCS Level II codes are: G0102 Prostate cancer screening; digital rectal exam G0103 Prostate cancer screening; prostate specific antigen test (PSA) The ICD-10 diagnosis code to support either screening is: Z12.5 Encounter for screening for malignant neoplasm of prostate According to the Medicare Intermediary Manual, Transmittal 1801, Change Request (CR) 1098, both screening digital rectal examinations and PSA tests are covered once every 12 months for men beginning at age 50 (at least 11 months must have passed since the last Medicare-covered screening was performed). Although screening may help detect prostate cancer early, only a biopsy can diagnose prostate cancer, for sure. Treatment Options Are Based on Stages There are plenty of treatment options for prostate cancer.

CPT codes are revised annually in November with hundreds of codes added, changed or deleted each year. If you are in the medical coding and billing field, it is strongly recommended that you have the most current edition of the CPT manual, which means you need a new book annually. Professional additions, with illustrations are helpful to both new coders and frequent users alike. You can check out some of the medical coding books resources below: - CPT 2016 Professional Edition - 2016 ICD-10-CM Codebook - ICD-10-CM 2016 Code Set - HCPCS 2016 Level II Professional Edition - CPT Changes 2016: An Insider's View Related CPT Coding Posts: - How to Look Up CPT Codes for FREE — 7 Steps!

For the Improvement Activities category, we’ll provide you with a link to the Improvement Activities attestation page where you can document your performance.

Beginning in 2019, rehab therapists no longer need to complete functional limitation reporting (FLR) in order to receive reimbursement, which means HCPCS codes G8978 through G8999 and G9158 through G9186—as well as severity modifiers CH through CN—are no longer necessary, although providers may continue to use them for another year.

There’s still a therapy soft cap—with a slightly higher threshold amount. In 2018, the therapy cap was repealed and replaced with a soft cap, which means that the threat of a hard cap without an exceptions process is no more.

- Lower respiratory infection: If the COVID-19 is documented as being associated with a lower respiratory infection, not otherwise specified (NOS), or an acute respiratory infection, NOS, this should be assigned with code J22, Unspecified acute lower respiratory infection, with code B97.29, Other coronavirus as the cause of diseases classified elsewhere. - Suspected exposure with persons confirmed to have COVID-19: Assign code Z20.828, Contact with and (suspected) exposure to other viral communicable diseases. - Concern about possible exposure that is ruled out after evaluation: Assign code Z03.818, Encounter for observation for suspected exposure to other biological agents ruled out. - Testing: There are two new HCPCS codes for healthcare providers who need to test patients for coronavirus.

If the decision is made to excise or destroy a lesion for prophylactic purposes, doing so in an urgent manner is not necessary, as the period between lesion development and malignancy often spans decades.

HCPCS
Although nonexcisional destructive methods (.g., laser, cryotherapy) has been used to remove isolated porokeratosis lesions, there are no studies showing the value of prophylactic non-excisional surgical treatment in reducing the incidence of malignancy in cases of porokeratosis (Sertznig, et al., 2012). If the decision is made to excise or destroy a lesion for prophylactic purposes, doing so in an urgent manner is not necessary, as the period between lesion development and malignancy often spans decades. After removal, clinical follow-up still should be performed yearly to evaluate these patients for the development of new or recurrent lesions (Spencer, 2011; Spencer, 2012). |CPT Codes / HCPCS Codes / ICD-10 Codes| |Information in the [brackets] below has been added for clarification purposes.
