Wiki Cpt 95863

[twarren2]

Please see the example below. I'm trying to figure out if this would be 3 extremities - Upper, Lower and Trunk (since the rectus abdominis muscle doesn't fall under either upper or lower extremity). Would you use cpt 95863 in this situation? Thanks in advance for your help.

I would look at 95870 for the rectus abdominis.
