steps and all similar non-billable patient visits.
D. These mapping changes will require that practitioners select any
code(s) NOT in the "99 Series" (D0999, D2999, D3999, D4999,
D5899, D5999, D6199, D6999, D7999, D8999, and D9999) for
"billable" procedures. Practitioners are advised to select the
closest CDT code(s) outside the "99 Series" for any procedure
that is considered "billable," and, therefore, results in
clinical productivity related to procedures identified by the
CDT codes not in the "unspecified" category (the "99 Series").
