Overview
While initial joint replacement procedures are somewhat straightforward, revision procedure coding muddies the waters. In this webinar, we will begin by reviewing major joint anatomy and then move onto CPT coding for shoulder, hip, and knee arthroplasty procedures.
Objectives:
- Review anatomy of shoulder, hip, and knee joints
- Distinguish between initial hip arthroplasty and revision codes
- Identify when to use codes for revision of major joints
