A faster pathway from physician intent to the correct CPT® code selection
In a busy, fast-paced environment, these unique quick-reference anatomical charts will save you time and make it easier to zero in on the right CPT codes for vascular and nonvascular IR procedures. Featuring high-quality images, color coding and helpful tips, the charts help clarify physician intent, enabling you to efficiently select the correct codes for common and complex IR procedures performed across all body systems. And it's not just new or seasoned coders who've found these charts to be indispensable — they're also ideal for billing staff, techs, physicians, students and anyone else who wants to improve their understanding of IR coding. And they're the perfect companion to our Interventional Radiology Coder book.
