What code would be used to report a massive debridement of an open abdominal wound, including subcutaneous tissue and muscle? a b c d In reviewing the medical record of a patient admitted for a left herniorrhaphy, the coder discovers an extremely low potassium level on the laboratory report. In examining the physician s orders, the coder notices that intravenous potassium was ordered. The physician has not listed any 5
6 6 indication of an abnormal potassium level or any related condition on the discharge summary. The best course for action for the coder to take is to: a. confer with the physician and ask him or her to list the condition as a final diagnosis if he or she considers the abnormal potassium level to be clinically significant. b. code the record as is. c. code the condition as an abnormal blood chemistry. d. code the abnormal potassium level as a complication following surgery In general, all three key components (history, physical examination and medical decision making) for the E/M codes in CPT should be met or exceeded when a. the patient is established. b. a new patient is seen in the office c. the patient is given subsequent care in the hospital d. the patient is seen for follow up inpatient consultation 450. Lisa Lopez was admitted to the ambulatory care unit of the hospital for a planned cholecystectomy for cholelithiasis. Shortly before surgery, Lisa developed tachycardia, and the surgery was canceled. After a thorough work up for tachycardia, Lisa was discharged. This outpatient admission should be coded in the following sequence: a. V-code for canceled surgery, tachycardia, cholelithiasis b. tachycardia, V-code for canceled surgery, cholelithiasis c. cholelithiasis, V-code for canceled surgery. d. cholelithiasis, V-code for canceled surgery, tachycardia.
7 7 Medical Coding Exam System - Week 3 Day 4 Practice Exam Answers a b c c d a b a d d c c a b c b c c b a. Codes and are used for I&D s of superficial abcesses, 427. d. Radiology codes would be used for the supervision and interpretation c. Code is for use when an irrigation substance is used a. Report this code only once regardless how many units were given d. In order to use time as a factor in determining the appropriate E&M code, the total time spent with the patient, as well as the amount of time spent in counseling, must be recorded.
8 c. Codes starting with 852 are considered to be traumatic injuries. No injury was stated in the case, so 432.1, non-traumatic subdural hematoma would be the appropriate code b. Consultation codes can no longer be coded when the physician has taken an active part in the continued care of the patient a. When a diagnosis is preceded by the phrase rule out in the inpatient setting, the condition is coded as though it is confirmed b. chromosomal 435. d. A final note may substitute for a discharge summary for patients admitted for less than 48 hours with minor problems, uncomplicated deliveries and for normal neonates a. The physician releasing the patient should write a final note of summary of the patient s course of treatment, sating the patient s condition at discharge, and instructions for the patient s activity, diet and medications as well as any follow up appointments or instructions. If patients expires, the final notes describe the circumstances regarding the death, the findings, the cause of death and whether or not an autopsy was performed b. The code would report a laparoscopic procedure. The code would report an open procedure 438. b. General guidelines in the ICD9CM Manual, Chapter 2, state that neoplasms give specific details related to sequencing order to report codes. Notice, under Chapter 2, a., that treatment directed at the malignancy indicates assignment of the appropriate treatment code (radiation) as first listed followed by site being treated. Notice, under Chapter 2, b., that treatment of secondary site would be reported next, followed by primary site that still exists d. The hospital inpatient visit would not be coded using HCPCS/CPT codes. Hospital inpatient visit diagnoses and procedures are coded using ICD-9-CM codes c. Staging is a term used to refer to the progression of cancer. In accessing most types of cancer, a method (staging) is used to determine how far the cancer has progressed. The cancer is described in terms of how large the main tumor is, the degree to which it has invaded surrounding tissue, ad the extent to which it has spread to lymph glands or other areas of the body. Staging not only helps to assess outlook but also the most appropriate treatment c. Anesthesia codes must have a physical status modifier. This question has qualifying circumstances based on the patient age d d. Fatigue and flu like symptoms/signs of hepatitis would not be coded c. The atelectasis is coded because it required monitoring and extended his length of stay d. Any abbreviations permitted in a patient record should be understood by all. Use of abbreviations is strictly prohibited when documenting the final diagnoses and procedures for an episode of care.
9 b. The indented code indicates this is the type of code for which the full code description can be known only if the text preceding the semicolon of a preceding entry is referenced. The CPT manual is formatted in this manner in order to save space d identifies the debridement of the skin, subcutaneous tissue, and muscle a. A coder should never assign a code on the basis of laboratory results alone. If findings are clearly outside the normal range and the physician has ordered additional testing or treatment, it is appropriate to consult with the physician as to whether a diagnosis should be added or whether the abnormal finding should be listed b. All three components (history, physical examination and medical decision making) are required for new patients and initial visits. At least two of the three components are required for established patients, subsequent visits and follow-up consultations d. There are V-codes that indicate various reasons for canceled surgery. Review codes V64.0x, V64.1, V64.2, and V64.3. As usual, the principal diagnosis is always the reason for admission in this case, the cholelithiasis. The contraindication (the tachycardia) should also be coded.
