How would you identify the CPT code that is Medicare-compliant for billing

Rashid [163]

The CPT for a new patient office consultation Medicare-compliant billing that was formerly reported with E/M 99242 ranges from 99201-99205

Explanation:

During this outpatient office visit, a detailed patient history and examination is done, counseling with other healthcare providers provided if needed, and medical decision making done as per the condition, all of which takes around 30 minutes. Depending upon the complexity of the patient’s presenting complaint or condition, the codes and modifiers are chosen for billing. For example, if the presenting complaint is of moderate severity, then the CPT code is 99203.

slega [8]

The nurse will assess for inadequate tracheostomy tube cuff inflation while responding to a low-pressure limit mechanical ventilator alarm.

An alarm for excessive airway pressure indicates an issue with compliance or resistance.
To stop the alarm and make sure the patient receives the predetermined number of breaths from the ventilator, turn up the upper limit on the alarm parameter first.

An audible and/or visual alert will trigger if the pressure inside the breathing circuit falls below the Low Airway Pressure Alarm limit specified on the ventilator. Low pressure alerts can be caused by, among other things:

The patient's connection to the ventilator circuit breaks.

inadequate tracheostomy tube cuff inflation

nasal cushions, prongs, or invasive non-masks that don't fit well

Circuit and tube connections that are loose

The ventilator cannot supply the patient with as much air as they need.

wariber [46]

A patient is diagnosed with urinary tract obstruction. while planning care, the nurse realizes that the patient is expected to have hydronephrosis and a decreased glomerular filtration rate caused by <u>Renal pelvis and calyces that are close to a blockage enlarge</u>.

Because of a blockage in the urine's outflow distal to the renal pelvis, hydronephrosis is described as the dilatation and distension of one or both kidneys' renal collecting systems (i.e., ureter, urinary bladder, and urethra). Hydroureter refers to ureteral dilation brought on by blockage of urine outflow.

Intrinsic and extrinsic compression are two major categories for the causes of urinary tract obstruction. Renal stones, cancer, ureteropelvic junction stenosis, ureteral strictures from earlier inflammation, renal cysts, posterior urethral valves, benign prostatic hyperplasia, neurogenic bladder, and others are causes of intrinsic obstruction.

Extrinsic compression can be brought on by conditions such as pregnancy, peripelvic cysts, retrocaval ureters, cancer, trauma, retroperitoneal fibrosis, and prostate abscess, among others.

If an 1800-kcalorie diet contains 100 grams of fat, the percentage of kcal from the fat is: a. 20 %. b. 35 %. c. 50 %. d. 65 %.

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

It should be about 5.4% which adds up to about 100.8 calories. None of these answer options appear to be consistent with that

Explanation:

1,800*0.20=360 kcals

1,800*0.35=630 kcals

Anything higher than those values is much too high for fat intake.
