3 Introduction Optum360 is proud to present the 2017 Medical Services Cross Coder. The popularity of Medical Services Cross Coder in recent years indicates that it has become the quintessential one-stop reference for medical coders. Fully comprehensive and illustrated, Medical Services Cross Coder links more than 900 CPT medical services codes to corresponding diagnosis and procedure codes. This reference is embraced by professional coders working in clinical outpatient, hospital, as well as payer settings. Medical Services Cross Coder is a single repository where every medical services CPT code instantly reveals the most appropriate diagnosis code as well as appropriate codes for ancillary supplies and pharmaceuticals. Medical Services Cross Coder is based on the medicine section of Current Procedural Terminology (CPT ). Up-to-date CPT surgery codes link to the following related medical coding systems: International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) Healthcare Common Procedural Coding System (HCPCS) Level II All coding relationships in Medical Services Cross Coder start with the medicine section of the CPT book presenting a general clinical picture of each medical services code. Pertinent related coding relationships were carefully reviewed and screened for appropriate information. Unusual associations not commonly found are not included. Perhaps more significantly, many acute and chronic medical conditions may eventually lead to medical intervention. Clinical analysts point out that chronic and acute conditions are nearly always aggressively approached medically before surgery is even considered. For this reason, the number of cross-coded chronic and acute conditions are selectively culled in this reference book. In some instances the data is abridged simply due to the enormity of the listings. For example, diagnosis codes for infections call for additional codes to identify specific organisms. The possible associations are simply too numerous and, as a result, do not appear in Medical Services Cross Coder. In a similar vein, Medical Services Cross Coder features codes that require accompanying etiologies or manifestations (examples include Code first underlying disease... ). However, associated infectious and parasitic diseases are, once again, simply too numerous to list and do not appear in Medical Services Cross Coder. For further discussion on secondary diagnosis codes, see the ICD-10-CM section later in this introduction. Some CPT codes are omitted from the listing because consistent and reliable cross links are almost impossible to establish. Unlisted procedure codes are an obvious example. Certain types of add-on codes are also treated somewhat differently in Medical Services Cross Coder. These codes are discussed in greater detail under the CPT Codes section later in this introduction. Listings for codes that are modifier 51 exempt or modifier 63 exempt can be found in CPT As a coding reference, Medical Services Cross Coder presents most likely scenarios as derived from clinical review. However, Medical Services Cross Coder is not a substitute for ICD-10-CM, or any other medical coding reference, and users are urged to regularly consult all available sources. The absence of any specific code does not necessarily indicate that its association to the base procedure code is inappropriate. Assuming all rules of medical coding are followed, excepted diagnosis codes may prove appropriate to a specific code scenario. Medical Services Cross Coder does not include coding rules and guidelines. Once again, the user is urged to consult the original coding reference (e.g., current CPT, ICD-10-CM, HCPCS Level II, etc.) or one of several reputable medical coding instruction manuals. Format An understanding of the Medical Services Cross Coder format allows users to easily navigate its content. Information within the main section ties back to the CPT book and codes are presented in the numeric order of the surgery section. Sections Medical Services Cross Coder provides linked information to the CPT code range the medicine portion of the CPT book. The codes are divided into the same sections and subsections as the medicine section of the CPT book. For example, the cardiovascular section is divided into subsections including therapeutic services, cardiography, cardiovascular monitoring, device monitoring, echocardiography, cardiac catheterization, electrophysiological procedures, peripheral arterial disease rehabilitation, noninvasive physiologic studies, and other procedures. Codes and Code Ranges The data within each CPT code set of Medical Services Cross Coder is presented as follows: CPT code or code range CPT codes and descriptions Associated CPT codes and descriptions ICD-10-CM diagnostic codes and descriptions HCPCS codes and descriptions For example: Screening test, pure tone, air only Z00.00 Encounter for general adult medical examination without Z00.01 Encounter for general adult medical examination with abnormal findings Z01.10 Encounter for examination of ears and hearing without Z Encounter for hearing examination following failed hearing screening Z Encounter for examination of ears and hearing with other Z01.12 Encounter for hearing conservation and treatment Z97.4 Presence of external hearing-aid HCPCS Level II Supplies & Services V5008 Hearing screening 2017 Optum360, LLC 2017 American Medical Association.
