The CPT ® codes is part of the HCPCS coding system. Each year the AMA releases coding additions, deletions and revisions. This year, in addition to these yearly changes, a significant change has been made to the Evaluation and Management Chapter as a whole.
In 2021, CPT ® saw significant changes to Office and Other Outpatient Services Guidelines and their Codes. Some aspects of these changes have been affected for the upcoming year.
