There is no website for the CPT changes. You will need to purchase a book. There may be some other sites you can pay a subscription to that will give you the updates but there is nothing free.

There is a webinar today on this website that is offering the updates. I suggest if you need them until your book(s) arrive that you join.
 
Re: CPT 2017 changes

If you just need a listing of the changes, you can use appendix B in the CPT manual. It is a summary of additions, deletions and revisions.

moderate (concious sedation)

The bulls-eye symbol for moderate sedation has been removed and all those codes have been revised to no longer include that service. New moderate sedation codes have been added for when the provider provides their own sedation. This was done to stop physicians from getting reimbursed for services performed and billed by anesthesia services. I think there's around 400 codes affected.
