The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) code range for General Surgical Procedures 10004-10021 is a medical code set maintained by the American Medical Association.
The Procedure Classes provide users an easy way to categorize procedure codes into one of four broad categories: Minor Diagnostic, Minor Therapeutic, Major Diagnostic, and Major Therapeutic.
ICD-9-CM is the official system of assigning codes to diagnoses and procedures associated with hospital utilization in the United States. The ICD-9 was used to code and classify mortality data from death certificates until 1999, when use of ICD-10 for mortality coding started.

International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) and Other Coding Revisions to National Coverage Determination (NCDs)--January 2022
All Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) ICD-10 system changes have been phased-in and are scheduled for completion by October 1, 2014, giving a full year for additional testing, fine-tuning, and preparation prior to full implementation of ICD-10 CM/PCS for all Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)-covered entities. ICD-10-CM/PCS will replace ICD-9-CM/PCS diagnosis and procedure codes in all health care settings for dates of service, or dates of discharge for inpatients, that occur on or after the implementation date of ICD-10.
The International Classification of Disease (ICD)-10 code sets provide flexibility to accommodate future health care needs, facilitating timely electronic processing of claims by reducing requests for additional information to providers. ICD-10 also includes significant improvements over ICD-9 in coding primary care encounters, external causes of injury, mental disorders, and preventive health. The ICD-10 code sets' breadth and granularity reflect advances in medicine and medical technology, as well as capture added detail on socioeconomics, ambulatory care conditions, problems related to lifestyle, and the results of screening tests.
ICD-10-PCS has a 7 character alpha-numeric code structure that provides a unique code for all substantially different procedures, and allows new procedures to be incorporated as new codes. All procedures currently performed can be specified in ICD-10-PCS.
The Medical and Surgical section codes represent the vast majority of procedures reported in an inpatient setting. Medical and surgical procedure codes have a first character value of "0". The 2nd character indicates the general body system (e.g., gastrointestinal).
6 - Extracorporeal or Systemic Therapies. In extracorporeal therapy, equipment outside the body is used for a therapeutic purpose that does not involve the assistance or performance of a physiological function. Extracorporeal therapy procedure codes have a first character value of “6”.
Physical rehabilitation section codes represent procedures including physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech-language pathology. Osteopathic procedures and chiropractic procedures are in sections 7 and 9 respectively. Physical rehabilitation and diagnostic audiology procedure codes have a first character value of “F”. The second character specifies the section qualifier Rehabilitation or Diagnostic Audiology. The third character specifies the root type.
3 - Administration. Administration section codes represent procedures for putting in or on a therapeutic, prophylactic, protective, diagnostic, nutritional or physiological substance. Administration procedure codes have a first character value of “3”.
Measurement and monitoring procedure codes have a first character value of “4”. The second character value for body system is either physiological systems or physiological devices.
Placement section codes represent procedures for putting an externally placed device in or on a body region for the purpose of protection, immobilization, stretching, compression or packing. Placement procedure codes have a first character value of “2”.
When you look up this code in the Tabular List, you’ll find the instructional note “Code first underlying neoplasm (C00-D49).”
When you look up this code in the Tabular List, you’ll find an instructional note to “Code also” adrenal adenoma (D35.0-).
Coding for a late effect usually requires two codes.
When we select diagnosis codes for billing, we are telling the story of a patient’s healthcare encounter. Patients often present with multiple conditions — some related, some not. Medical coders are tasked with selecting the most specific codes and putting them in the right order. This code arrangement is called “sequencing,” and it is an essential step to correct coding.
The “Use additional” code note is found below the underlying condition code.
Appears in the Official Guidelines at I.A.7. Codes that are in brackets in the Alphabetic Index are always sequenced second.
This convention instructs that two codes may be required, but it does not provide sequencing direction.
