MedicineShort Answer1.Unlisted procedure or service: A service may be provided that is not specifically listed in the CPT manual. Whenthis occurs, an unlisted procedure code is used from within a specific subsection of the CPT manual.2. Add-on codes are codes that are listed as secondary to a main procedure code and are used in conjunction with themain code. Add-on codes are not to be reported alone.3. Modifiers are two-digit codes that are appended to a CPT code to enhance or further describe a service provided.4. A special report may be required by some third-party payers when an unusual, variable, or new service is provided.Information contained in the special report includes a description of the nature, extent, and need for the procedureand the time, effort, and equipment necessary to provide the service.5. The Alphabetical Reference Index is an expanded alphabetical index that includes listings by the name of theprocedure and anatomic site. Eponyms and other designations are also included in the index.6.
