Answer:
CPT is what was done, the ICD is why it was done. Insurance companies, especially Medicare and Medicaid have procedures that they will not cover if you don’t attach an acceptable diagnosis code. Fortunately, this isn’t a secret. They publish documents that outline what the procedure(s) are and what the needed or ‘covered’ diagnoses are.
Most of the links are self evident. Broken arm diagnosis - fix broken arm CPT code. Other pairings are also as easy.
It has gotten more difficult with ICD-10 because the available number of diagnoses has expanded tremendously. For some insurance companies it was an opportunity to narrow down the covered diagnoses for some of the more expensive procedures.
Modifiers have special use in coding. They can be informative; there are modifiers for each of your fingers and each of your toes. They can affect your reimbursement for the procedure performed: there are modifiers for services that were not completed. There are modifiers that will allow you to bill some things you wouldn’t be able to normally; modifiers for the same surgery done at different sites. Modifiers go on the CPT codes, not the diagnosis codes. Some modifiers are only for physician visits, some only for surgery. There are many, and using them is an art form.

Answer:
John asked if I could study with him?
Explanation:
There is extraneous information in the diagram. There is duplicate information where you have... There are rivers flowing beneath our feet... a myth? Can stay because it’s simplified. The information ...Have you ever heard that there are rivers of water flowing underground? Do you think it’s true? should be deleted because it’s duplicating the simplified statement prior. Also, Some rivers, such as the Alpaha River in northern Florida, USA,can disappear underground during low flow periods isn’t relevant to the rest of the diagram. Generally water underground is more like water in a sponge is inaccurate and should be deleted. It states in the diagram later on that the water underground is a filler between the rock particles and soil. I hope this helped you. Sorry I didn’t see it sooner.
