NEW QUESTION # 311
A patient had surgery a year ago to repair two flexor tendons in his forearm. He is in surgery for a secondary repair for the same two tendons.
Which CPT coding is reported?
Answer: A
Explanation:
The scenario involves a secondary repair of two flexor tendons in the forearm. CPT code 25272 describes the repair of a secondary flexor tendon injury, including a graft, in the forearm and/or wrist, which fits the description provided. This code should be reported once, as the procedure encompasses the repair of multiple tendons.
References:
* AMA's CPT Professional Edition (current year), Code 25272
NEW QUESTION # 312
Preoperative diagnosis: Right thigh benign congenital hairy nevus. *1
Postoperative diagnosis: Right thigh benign congenital hairy 0 nevus.
Operation performed: Excision of right thigh benign congenital>1
nevus, excision size with margins 4.5 cm and closure size 5 cm.
Anesthesia: General.0
Intraoperative antibiotics: Ancef.0
Indications: The patient is a 5-year-old girl who presented with her parents for evaluation of her right thigh congenital nevus. It has been followed by pediatrics and thought to have changed over the past year. Family requested excision. They understood the risks involved, which included but were not limited to risks of general anesthesia, infection, bleeding, wound dehiscence, and poor scar formation. They understood the scar would likely widen as the child grows because of the location of it and because of the age of the patient. They consented to proceed.
Description of procedure: The patient was seen preoperatively in > I the holding area, identified, and then brought to the operating room. Once adequate general anesthesia had been induced, the patient's right thigh was prepped and draped in standard surgical fashion. An elliptical excision measuring 6 x 1.8 cm had been marked. This was injected with Lidocaine with epinephrine, total of 6 cc of 1% with 1:100,000. After an adequate amount of time, a #15 blade was used to sharply excise this full thickness.
This was passed to pathology for review. The wound required # limited undermining in the deep subcutaneous plane on both sides for approximately 1.5 cm in order to allow mobilization of the skin for closure. The skin was then closed in a layered fashion using 3-0 Vicryl on the dermis and then 4-0 Monocryl running subcuticular in the skin, the wound was cleaned and dressed with Dermabond and Steri-Strips.
The patient was then cleaned and turned over to anesthesia for S extubation.

NEW QUESTION # 313 
Refer to the supplemental information when answering this question:
View MR 065174
What E/M code is reported for this encounter?
Answer: D
Explanation:
To determine the correct E/M code, we need to consider the three key components: history, examination, and medical decision making (MDM).
* History:
* The documentation indicates an expanded problem-focused history. This is supported by the detailed history of present illness, including the patient's description of symptoms, family history, and review of systems with pertinent positives and negatives.
* Examination:
* The examination is also expanded problem-focused. The physician focused on the relevant systems (head, neck, throat) and documented specific findings related to the chief complaint (thyromegaly).
* Medical Decision Making:
* The MDM is straightforward. The physician is evaluating a new problem (bilateral thyroid nodules) with a low level of risk. Although further workup is planned, this alone doesn't automatically increase the MDM complexity.
Based on these components, 99213 is the most appropriate code.
Why other options are incorrect:
* 99212: Requires a problem-focused history and examination, which is less comprehensive than what was documented.
* 99214 and 99215: Require a higher level of MDM (low or moderate complexity) and/or a more detailed examination. The documentation doesn't support this level of service.
References:
* CPT Codes 99211-99215: Office or other outpatient visit for the evaluation and management of an established patient
* 1995 and 1997 Documentation Guidelines for Evaluation and Management Services: These guidelines provide detailed criteria for selecting the appropriate E/M code based on history, examination, and MDM.
* AAPC Coder's Desk Reference: This resource provides detailed information on coding guidelines and procedures.

NEW QUESTION # 315
A patient with three thyroid nodules is seen for an FNA biopsy. Using ultrasonic guidance, the provider inserts a 25-gauge needle into each nodule. Nodular tissue is aspirated and sent to pathology.
What CPT coding reported?
Answer: B
Explanation:
The CPT code 10005 is for fine needle aspiration biopsy, including ultrasound guidance, for the first lesion.
CPT code 10006 is for each additional lesion with ultrasound guidance. Since the provider aspirated tissue from three nodules, the coding should be 10005 for the first nodule and 10006 x 2 for the additional two nodules.References: AMA's CPT Professional Edition (current year)
