Optometry is one of the few sub-fields to have its office visit codes. Eye coding examinations make use of 920XX codes. Thus, it’s simpler to meet the documentation necessities, especially the history components.

The CPT modifiers are either alphanumeric or numeric. Thus, they are usually added to the back of a CPT code together with a hyphen. It’s wise to understand the various uses of each of the CPT code modifiers before applying them.
The third factor is the place of practice. The place you choose helps determine how you’re billed and coded in your optometrist practice. Your qualification and license is another factor to put into consideration. Before an optometrist gets credentialed, information on professional background and education is required.
