How Do You Code Extremity Radiographs In Four Steps?
In order to code extremity radiographs you need to make sure you have the correct level of HCPCS. Level I is mainly used for procedures and medical services. Level II is used to identify supplies, services, and products not covered in Level I. The first step is to find out what the code for radiology is. You do this by looking in the index, NOT the section wanted. I do not have a HCPCS book but checked online. When you find radiology, it should be 032x. Go to this section. Look for extremity. I do not know from your request what extremity you are talking about. Find the code for the type of radiation treatment.
