Answers:
It has to do with insurance companies. The code that is sent into them for a certain procedure determines how much the insurance company will pay for the exam that was done. If the wrong code is wrote in the insurance co. may not pay for it or they will pay less then they should. Codes chg like the wind does and you have to stay on top of the changes.
