Short Answer

• Unlisted procedure or service: A service may be provided that is not specifically listed in the

CPT manual. When this occurs, an unlisted procedure code is used from within a specific subsection of the CPT manual.

• Add-on codes are codes that are listed as secondary to a main procedure code and are used

in conjunction with the main code. Add-on codes are not to be reported alone. 3 / 4

• Modifiers are two-digit codes that are appended to a CPT code to enhance or further

describe a service provided.

new service is provided. Information contained in the special report includes a description of the nature, extent, and need for the procedure and the time, effort, and equipment necessary to provide the service.

the name of the procedure and anatomic site. Eponyms and other designations are also included in the index.
