A 28-year-old female patient is returning to her provider’s office with complaints of RLQ pain and heartburn with a temperature

of 100.2. The provider performs a detailed history, detailed exam and determines the patient has mild appendicitis. The provider prescribes antibiotics to treat the appendicitis in hopes of avoiding an appendectomy. What are the correct CPT® and ICD-10-CM codes for this encounter?

Answer:

The options:

a.99202, R10.31, K37

b.99213, K37

c.99214, K37, R12

d.99203, R50.9, R12, R10.31, K374

The CORRECT ANSWER IS c.

c.99214, K37, R12

Explanation:

This is a confirmed patient E/M level of service which comes as a result of the signs and symptoms which made her check back to her provider for the appointment.

Code 99214 is suitable in cases where two out of three essential units are met for a confirmed patient.

Based on the ICD-10-CM guidelines I.B.4., an important diagnosis is stated and recorded after its confirmed.

On careful examination of the ICD-10-CM Alphabetic Index for Appendicitis which leads us to K37.

Guideline I.B.5 pinpoints to whatever Clinical manifestations seen to be a key part of the important diagnosis/disease activities.

Heartburn can not be regarded as a symptom often observed with appendicitis. Thus, we can record this using an extra code, references to guideline I.B.6.

From the guideline I.B.6 the Alphabetic Index for Heartburn would guide us straight to R12.

How do you think that Karl von
sergey [27]

Answer:

Karl von Frisch is best known for two major discoveries about honey bees. First, he demonstrated that honey bees have color vision, and published these findings in 191*. Second, in 193* he showed that honey bees use a dance language to communicate food locations to other bees.

Explanation:

Figure 1. Grids for the color vision test. The training color, marked with T, is blue in both cases; all other squares are shades of gray. The left box shows how the grid appears to an animal with color vision. The right box shows how the same grid may appear to an animal without color vision. The training square appears to be the same shade of gray as other squares in the grid. If the test animal cannot see in color, it will confuse the training square with other squares matching its shade of gray.

This clever test for color vision can be applied to any animal which can learn to recognize a feeding station using visual patterns.

The dance language

von Frisch observed that once one honey bee finds a feeding station, many other soon appear at the same station. This suggests that the first bee recruits other bees to the food. How might honey bees recruit help in collecting food? von Frisch¹s discovery of the dance language of the honey bee required careful determination of the correlations between movements of bees inside the hive and the locations of feeding stations. He found two types of dance. The round dance (Figure 2A) causes bees to look for food a short distance (up to about 50 meters) from the hive. The waggle dance (Figure 2B) tells bees the direction and distance to fly to find more distant food sources. Scout bees use these dances to recruit assistance in collecting food resources.

When the nucleus of a fully differentiated carrot cell is injected into a frog egg whose nucleus has been removed, the injected
Alexxandr [17]

In this case, it is given that the nucleus of the carrot cell is injected into the frog's egg lacking nucleus. In this case, the recipient egg (frog egg) would not be able to produce the carrot. Every species differ from from each other, sometimes, mating between closely related species can produce hybrid offspring, but frog and carrot cannot be combined at all in any aspect.

The carrot is a plant and the frog is an animal. All the physiological processes vary a lot in between plant and the animal. Hence, this growth would not be supported. So, it is impossible to generate a carrot by inserting it's nucleus in the frog's cell.
