Answer:

36415

Explanation:

CPT is a coding system used in the hospital environment. This system is made up of a list of diseases where a code is assigned to each one.

Once a catalog with the diseases is made and assigned codes, the monitoring of their prevalence and incidence becomes more palpable when associated with the groups that affect them. Thus, health managers now rely on statistical data that reflect the reality of public health. The analysis of these results assists in decision making and planning of assistance measures to improve care in the analyzed place. In addition, classification avoids ambiguity or misunderstanding when referring to a particular pathology.

An example of how this code is used is seen in the above question, where the patient situation is summarized by CTP with the code 36415.
