CPT Codes, or Current Procedural Terminology Codes, are a set of medical codes used to describe medical, surgical, and diagnostic services. Developed by the American Medical Association, these codes help healthcare providers communicate about procedures and services in a standardized way. Each code corresponds to a specific service, making it easier for insurance companies to process claims and reimburse providers. CPT Codes are divided into three categories: Category I codes for procedures and services, Category II codes for performance measures, and Category III codes for emerging technologies. By using these codes, healthcare professionals can ensure accurate billing and maintain clear records of patient care.
