Answer:

99253

Explanation:

Dr. X asks Dr. Y to undergo a consultation on a patient occupying a nursing facility.

Based on CPT® guidelines: “The preliminary inpatient consultation codes (99251-99255), should be employed just once by the reporting provider for a singular hospital or nursing institution to patient for a specific admission. It is necessary for these codes to be documented for consultations given to hospital inpatients, occupiers of nursing institution, or patients occupying a partial hospital environment.”

A consultation is a kind of service offered by a provider whose idea or guidance on the aspect of examination and /or handling of a certain problem is demanded for by a different provider.

The requesting provider undergoes the consultation, records his or her view in the client's medical record, and pass on findings/recommendations with the aid of a written report to the demanding provider or other relevant source.

Consultations demands the need to record three of three basic constituent. The provider undergo a comprehensive history, explicit exam and modest MDM.

The correct code would be 99253

Nikitich [7]
The answer is conditioned stimulus. Whenever Sue gave food to her dog that is in the pantry, she also opens the door there to get the food. So the dog had learned an association between the sound of door and the food and a new behavior had been learned. Because this reaction was cultured (or conditioned), it is known as a conditioned response.
