S52.101BUnspecified fracture of upper end of right radius, initial encounter for open fracture


S52.001AUnspecified fracture of upper end of right ulna, initial encounter for closed fracture

The patient has a fracture of the right proximal ulna and closed reduction is necessary. In the ICD-10-CM

Code Book, under Fracture, ulna, proximal, the coder is referred to Fracture, ulna, upper end. The term

"manipulation" is used to indicate reduction in CPT. According to CPT guidelines, cast application or

strapping (including removal) is only reported as a replacement procedure or when the cast application

or strapping is an initial service performed without a restorative treatment or procedure (AMA CPT

Professional Edition 2020, 182). (Note: Since this is an ambulatory surgery center case, CPT codes are

assigned rather than ICD-10-PCS codes.)


A laparoscopic tubal ligation is completed. What is the correct CPT code assignment?


49320Laparoscopy, abdomen, peritoneum, and omentum, diagnostic, with or without collection of

specimen(s) by brushing or washing (separate procedure)


58662Laparoscopy, surgical; with fulguration or excision of lesions of the ovary, pelvic viscera, or

peritoneal surface by any method


58670Laparoscopy, surgical; with fulguration of oviducts (with or without transection)


58671Laparoscopy, surgical; with occlusion of oviducts by device (eg, band, clip, or Falope ring)




a. 49320, 58662


b. 58670


c. 58671


d. 49320 - ANSWER✔✔-Correct Answer: B


The code that best reports the tubal ligation is 58670 Laparoscopy, surgical; with fulguration of oviducts

because there are no clips or excision of lesion completed during the procedure (CPT Assistant Nov.

1999, 29; March 2000, 10).

d. O80, O30.009, Z3A.30, Z37.2 - ANSWER✔✔-Correct Answer: C


A code for preterm labor and delivery is assigned for each fetus since both babies were born preterm as

noted in Coding Clinic. Additionally, a code from category O30, Multiple gestations, must be assigned

(Leon-Chisen 2020, 325; AHA Coding Clinic 2016 2nd Quarter, 10-11).

A patient with acute respiratory failure, hypertension, and congestive heart failure is admitted for

intubation and ventilation. The patient's heart failure is stable on current medications. What are the

correct diagnosis codes and sequencing?


I10Essential hypertension


I11.0Hypertensive heart with heart failure

J96.00Acute respiratory failure, unspecified whether with hypoxia or hypercapnia


J96.20Acute and chronic respiratory failure, unspecified whether with hypoxia or hypercapnia

c. J96.20, I10, I50.9


d. I50.9, J96.20, I11.0 - ANSWER✔✔-Correct Answer: A


The patient was admitted and treated for respiratory failure. The other conditions present are also

coded. The classification presumes a causal relationship between hypertension and congestive heart

failure unless the physician documents otherwise (Leon-Chisen 2020, 228-231; CMS 2020a, Section

I.C.10.b., 53, Section I.C.9.a, 46; AHA Coding Clinic 2017 1st Quarter, 47).
