Question 1 |

A | Suture joint, medial joint, and articulation joint |
B | Ball-and-socket joint, hinge joint, and saddle joint |
C | Pivot joint, talus joint, and cranial joint |
D | Ball-and socket joint, nasal joint, and elevation joint |

Question 2 |
A physician designed and prepared prosthesis for palatal lift prosthesis. How should you report the physician’s professional service for this process?
A | 21083 |
B | 21083-26 |
C | L9900 |
D | L8699-26 |
Question 2 Explanation:
One way to find this answer in the CPT Professional Edition index is under the main term “Impression,” then “Maxillofacial,” and “Palatal Lift Prosthesis-21083.” The subcategory
guidelines provide direction for reporting these codes. (OR) Under Head prosthesis: Codes 21076-21089 describes professional service so no need of appending modifier 26. Palatal lift prosthesis (21083).
Question 3 |
A physician applied a cast and also provided all of the subsequent fracture care. The same physician may report the application of the cast separately from the fracture care.
A | True |
B | False |
Question 3 Explanation:
(false) when a physician applies the initial cast and assumes all of the subsequent fracture care, the physician cannot report the application of the cast separately because it is included
in the treatment of the fracture.
Question 4 |
The patient presented for medial meniscal tear left knee. Arthroscopy with partial medial menisectomy left knee and arthroscopic picking (drilling pick holes) of the lateral femoral condyle left knee was performed. Code the procedure and diagnosis codes.
A | 29880-LT, 29879-51-LT, S89.212A |
B | 29881-LT, 29879-51-LT, S89.212A |
C | 29882-LT, 29885-51-LT, S89.219A |
D | 29881-RT, 29885-51-LT, S89.219A |
Question 4 Explanation:
One way to narrow down the choices is to code for the diagnosis first, which is a medial meniscus tear of the left knee. In the ICD-10-CM code IS S89.212A. You eliminated choices C and D. 29881 (medial OR lateral) is the correct procedure code, since the menisectomy (removing torn
fragments) was performed on the medial meniscus only
Question 5 |
Patient complains of chronic/acute arm and shoulder pain following bilateral carpal tunnel surgery. Patient is followed by pain management for over a year. Physician finally diagnoses patient with reflex dystrophy syndrome (RSD). Physician performs six trigger point injections into four muscle groups. Code the procedure(s).
A | 20552 |
B | 20553 x 6 |
C | 20551 x 6 |
D | 20553 |
Question 5 Explanation:
Trigger point is your key term in this scenario, eliminating choice C. Trigger points are coded by the number of muscles that the injections are performed on, not by the number of trigger
point injections. The scenario tells you that six trigger points were injected into four muscle groups which lead you to the procedure code 20553
