Answer:

The answer to the question would be: 20610-RT for the procedure of injection to the bursa, and J3301 x4 goes for the medication that was administered, Kenalog, and x4 because the total amount used was 40 mg, while the CPT code is good for 1 mg.

Explanation:

The CPT codes, better known as Current Procedural Terminology, is a list of numerical codes that allow doctors, hospitals and other healthcare facilities, to bill the insurance companies of patients, for the procedures and services rendered in order to treat, or cure, an illness. ICD-10 codes are also part of this billable codiing system as they provide numerical categories to the illnesses that a patient may have and for which the patient is receiving a specific treatment. In this case, the CPT codes given relate to: first, the specific place in the body where the patient was treated, and second, to select the materials, and especially the medication, that was used, and in what amount it was used, to treat the specific medical condition. This will be sent to the insurance company of the patient, for billing.
