Description
This course covers the anatomy of the spinal column and the spinal cord. Common procedures performed on these structures are explained. Various approaches, devices and qualifiers that are commonly assigned when coding procedures performed on this system are explored in detail. Additional services that are typically encountered with spinal surgery cases are highlighted in this course.
Objectives:
Lesson 1: Anatomy of the Spine

Lesson 2: Approaches, Devices, and Qualifiers
- Explain the various approaches used to access the spinal column and spinal cord
- Identify the devices commonly placed during spinal procedures
- Assign the qualifiers used to code procedures performed on the spinal column
Lesson 3: Spinal Procedures
