Using codes 50541 and 50240 instead of 50543 for a laparoscopic nephrectomy is unbundling. This is false.

<h3>What is unbundling in medicine?</h3>

Upcoding and unbundling are both types of medical billing fraud. Unbundling involves billing complicated, multi-step procedures independently from one coded operation by healthcare providers. The provider can recover more money for the same services by billing the steps separately.

If done, the diagnostic laparoscopic technique is included in the laparoscopic ablation of a kidney cyst. To report this service, the coder ought to use 50541.

Therefore, using codes 50541 and 50240 instead of 50543 for a laparoscopic nephrectomy is unbundling. This is false.

Why is it important for both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells to go through cell division?
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

La división celular es una parte muy importante del ciclo celular en la que una célula inicial se divide para formar células hijas.1​Debido a la división celular se produce el crecimiento de los seres vivos. En los organismos pluricelulares este crecimiento se produce gracias al desarrollo de los tejidos y en los seres unicelulares mediante la reproducción asexual.

Los seres pluricelulares reemplazan su dotación celular gracias a la división celular y suele estar asociada con la diferenciación celular. En algunos animales la división celular se detiene en algún momento y las células acaban envejeciendo. Las células senescentes se deterioran y mueren debido al envejecimiento del cuerpo. Las células dejan de dividirse porque los telómeros se vuelven cada vez más cortos en cada división y no pueden proteger a los cromosomas como tal.

Las células hijas de las divisiones celulares, en el desarrollo temprano embrionario, contribuyen de forma desigual a la generación de los tejidos adultos.
