Same body part. Same goal. Different CPT. In musculoskeletal coding, the surgical approach drives the code not the outcome. Open, percutaneous, and closed procedures are never interchangeable on an exam. 📌 Remember: If the approach changes, the CPT code changes.

Fracture coding isn’t about the diagnosis it’s about what was done today. ✔️ Definitive fracture care ✔️ Provider assumes fracture management ❌ Evaluation only ❌ Routine follow-up This rule shows up all over the CPC exam. Save this before test day. 📚 #MedicalCoding #medicalcodingexamprep #medicalcodingtips #Musculoskeletal #medicalcodingstudent
