CPC Exam Dumps : Certified Professional Coder (CPC) Exam

Cervical spondylosis with myelopathy: Condition requiring decompressive surgery.

Bilateral posterior laminectomy, facetectomies, foraminotomies: Procedures performed to decompress nerve roots.

Interspaces C5-C6 and C6-C7: Specific levels where the procedures were performed.

CPT code 63045 is used for the initial cervical laminectomy, and 63048 is for each additional segment. The combination covers the decompression across two interspaces.

11200 = removal of up to 15 skin tags

11201 = each additional 10 lesions or part thereof

26 lesions = 15 + 11 → 11201 ×2

This scenario describes apalatoplasty(repair of cleft palate) withclosure of the alveolar ridgeusing abone graft. CPT code42210is the code that captures palatoplasty withclosure of the alveolar ridgeand associated bone grafting work as part of the reconstructive procedure described. Because the bone graft is part of the defined palatoplasty service in this code concept, you donotseparately report a generic bone graft harvesting code such as20900in the way the answer options suggest. The distractor42200is associated with a more limited palate repair (not matching the alveolar ridge closure with graft detail), and42205does not reflect the specific alveolar ridge closure with bone grafting described in the question stem. CPC exam strategy: identify the mostcomprehensive cleft palate repairthat matches the documentation; when a CPT code description includes the specific additional work (like alveolar ridge closure with graft), code that single comprehensive service.
