Clinical Payment and Coding Policies  describe payment rules and methodologies for Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) codes, Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System and ICD-10 coding for claims submitted as covered services. This information is a resource for our payment policies. It’s not intended to address all reimbursement-related issues. We regularly add and modify clinical payment and coding policy positions as part of our ongoing policy review process.
