Why ICD-10 codes are important
The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.

Laryngeal cancer forms in the tissues of the larynx (area of the throat that contains the vocal cords). The larynx includes the supraglottis, glottis (vocal cords), and subglottis. The cancer may spread to nearby tissues or to the thyroid, trachea, or esophagus.
Laryngoscopy procedures are coded using CPT 31505-31579.
Diagnostic flexible laryngoscopy (DFL) is a commonly performed procedure in Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery (OHNS) involving a thin, flexible, fiberoptic tube that can be passed transnasally to visualize the regions of the larynx.

60500CPT® Code 60500 in section: Parathyroidectomy or exploration of parathyroid(s)
Parathyroidectomy is surgery to remove the parathyroid glands or parathyroid tumors. The parathyroid glands are right behind your thyroid gland in your neck. These glands help your body control the calcium level in the blood.
Total thyroidectomy involves the removal of the entire thyroid gland. This procedure is most often performed to treat thyroid cancer, but it may also be performed to treat uncontrollable hyperthyroidism or goiter that causes severe symptoms.
