Wiki fracture care for a orthopedic specialist

[melonie_lockard@yahoo.com]

Please help. I am new to Orthopedic coding. I have a Orthopedic specialist who is wanting to know which CPT code he can use to bill for Fracture care? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Fracture care for what part of the body?

It depends on which part of the body is being treated and how it is being treated.

you need the procedure note and your CPT book only then can you determine the appropriate code.
