CPC Exam Coronary Arteries Questions and Answers

CPC Exam Coronary Arteries Question https://www.cco.us/medical-coding-cer... Q: [Coronary Arteries] I am confused with major coronary arteries questions on practice exams, board exams. Can you please give an example of questions with the answer as 92933-RC and 92934-LD? One of the practice exam questions gave an example of both of these. I need more clarification on how to answer correctly the questions from major coronary arteries. A: Yeah, this is a toughie. I have to give kudos to Ruth Sheets, who’s on our team, she does all of our practice exams, and she’s awesome, great rationale writer, so she actually understood this better than me. Because you know when you teach something for 10-15 years you get used to teaching it, and then they changed this on us a couple years ago and I kept struggling with explaining it right because it’s so different. But, Ruth picked it up and she actually wrote out most of this answer, so thank you Ruth, and I’ll be presenting it. First, some key ideas. Let me take you down to the bottom real quick to just get a picture of all of these codes, and this again is in the answer sheet for the Replay Club members. If you look at my little cheat sheet down here, this is my handwriting and it looks a little bit messy, so bear with me. These are done in a hierarchy, you need to look at your documentation and see what vessels are being worked on. That’s the first thing that you should do, write it in the margin of the note, just write down the vessels. Most vessels have a corresponding modifier like your LD, LC, RC, left descending, left common, right common, left main, and I forgot what RI means. {Ed. Note: RI is ramus intermedius.] These are the main vessels. For coding purposes there’s 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 main vessels that are recognized in CPT, and the hierarchy of how this work, I’ve numbered them. This is 92243 that’s your first one, 92241 is the second one, in the pecking order. The 92933 is the third one, 92924 is the fourth one, 92937 is the fifth, and 92928 is the sixth, and 92920 is the seventh. They’re not in numerical order. So what I recommend you to do is take your page, this is page 576 in the CPT Professional version, and bubble them like this, and then put the corresponding numbers of that hierarchical order. Now, where did I get this hierarchical order? I got it from the guidelines, and then I confirmed with Ruth, I got it right. Just so you could see the layout of how the codes work, and they’re all kind of all over the place. READ MORE HERE: https://www.cco.us/cpc-exam-coronary-...
