1. Procedure and CPT® Code Selection:

The patient underwent a suppression study involving five glucose tests and five human growth hormone tests.

CPT® Code 80430 represents a suppression panel specifically for growth hormone studies, which includes various assessments for diagnosing abnormal growth.

CPT® Code 82947 is used for each glucose test performed, and since five glucose tests were conducted, it should be coded as 82947 x 5.

CPT® Code 83003 is used for each human growth hormone test performed, and since five tests were conducted, it should be coded as 83003 x 5.

2. Rationale for Excluding Other Options:

Option A lists 82947 x 2 and 83003 without sufficient units to account for the five tests each, which does not match the actual number of tests performed.

Option B omits the suppression panel code 80430, which is necessary for documenting the overall suppression study.

Option D does not provide the correct quantity of glucose and growth hormone tests, which were each performed five times.

3. AAPC and CPT® Coding Guidelines:

According to AAPC guidelines, when a suppression panel includes multiple components that are performed more than once, the specific panel code 80430 should be used along with the correct number of individual component codes.

Therefore, the correct answer is C. 80430, 82947 x 5, 83003 x 5.
