I heard that AMA has released the new CPT codes for 2009, however I am unable to find these. Does anyone know where I can obtain this list?
Thanks:)
 
2009 CPT Code Changes

Thanks for the link; the codes on the CMS site are ICD-9 diagnosis and procedure. Is there any information yet on the 2009 CPT changes?
 
The AMA just released the 2009 CPT Codes. They are available as a download from the AMA website. The price is about $85.00 but well worth it if you need to get them now or need them in a data format. If you don't need them right away or want them as the CPT Manual, you can order them from the AMA as well. However, it will take them a while to fill your order.

If you need additional information, send me a personal email.

CPT deleted codes for 2009

Thanks for the post listing the new 2009 CPT codes. Does anyone have a list of the deleted CPT codes for 2009? I am particularly interested in the IV infusion/injection codes as I have heard that these codes are deleted.

Thanks,
Carmen

Carmen, Several sections in CPT were "reorganized" and many of the IV codes were given new numbers. For example,

90760 Intravenous infusion, hydration; initial, 31 minutes to 1 hour will be deleted

96360 Intravenous infusion, hydration; initial, 31 minutes to 1 hour will replace it.
Basically 907XX is replaced with 963XX
 
new pacemaker/ICD codes

Does anyone know how the new CPT codes for pacemaker/ICD/ILR evaluation compare to the existing codes?
What is the difference between codes 93279-93285 "Programmed device evaluation with iterative adjustment of the device to check function of the device and select optimal permanent programmed values with physician analysis, review and report" and 93288-93292 "Interrogation device evaluation (in person) with physician analysis, review and report, includes connection, recording and disconnection per patient encounter"?
Thanks,
Jill
