Spotlight on Orthopedic CPT Codes: Review Our Newest Refresh with YES Learning Series CPT Orthopedic Procedures III
YES is proud to announce the latest addition to our popular Refresh with YES learning series: CPT Orthopedic Procedures III. Designed to provide comprehensive insights and practical coding skills, this learning path focuses on three distinct presentations on orthopedic CPT codes: Cervical Arthrodesis Procedures with PEEK, Tendon Procedures of the Wrist and Hand, and Tendon Procedures of the Leg and Ankle.
This new learning series is crafted for coders who want to enhance their expertise in orthopedic CPT codes and ensure accuracy in reporting complex procedures. Here’s what makes this series a standout offering:
What’s Included in CPT Orthopedic Procedures III
The CPT Orthopedic Procedures III learning path is a deep dive into critical orthopedic procedures, offering background on anatomical structures and the application of CPT coding guidelines and references to CPT Assistant. Each section within this learning series includes case studies to bridge theoretical knowledge with real-world application. Below, we highlight each of the three sections included in the learning path:
CPT Cervical Arthrodesis Procedures with PEEK
Spinal arthrodesis procedures are complex and require a precise understanding of coding guidelines to ensure correct reporting. This course provides coders with a detailed look into cervical arthrodesis procedures, focusing on the use of the PEEK Interbody Fusion Device in anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF).
Learning Objectives:
- Describe the objectives and steps involved in a spinal arthrodesis procedure.
- Discuss the role of the PEEK Interbody Fusion Device in spinal fusion.
- Distinguish cases where anterior instrumentation must be coded separately for spinal stabilization with biomechanical device insertion.
CPT Tendon Procedures of the Wrist and Hand
Tendon procedures for the wrist, fingers, and thumb can involve various repairs, transfers, or reconstructions, each requiring precise coding. This presentation focuses on the anatomy of these tendons, their functions, and the associated CPT codes.
Learning Objectives:
- List the tendons of the wrist, fingers, and thumb and their respective functions.
- Review CPT codes, coding guidelines, and CPT Assistant advice for tendon procedures in these areas.
- Apply coding guidelines to case studies involving tendon repairs and procedures.
CPT Tendon Procedures of the Leg and Ankle
Tendon procedures in the lower extremities, particularly for the leg and ankle, demand specialized knowledge of both anatomy and procedural details. This presentation dives into coding scenarios and the unique guidelines for these procedures.
Learning Objectives:
- List the tendons of the leg and ankle and their primary functions.
- Review CPT codes, coding guidelines, and CPT Assistant references for tendon procedures in the lower extremities.
- Apply guidelines to assign codes for selected case studies, ensuring precision in coding tendon repairs or transfers.
