CPT Professional 2024

The American Medical Association (AMA) has authored the CPT® 2024 Professional Edition, which is the definitive resource for healthcare professionals to accurately report and bill medical procedures and services. Correct reporting and billing of medical procedures and services begin with this comprehensive codebook.

The AMA, with the help of physicians and other healthcare experts, exclusively creates and maintains the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) code set. Unlike any other codebook, the CPT® 2024 Professional Edition provides the official, complete, and accurate guidelines for the latest procedural terminology, enabling healthcare professionals to code and report medical services and procedures properly.

Recognizing the impact of racism on healthcare equity and the influence of visual representations, the CPT® 2024 Professional Edition will feature diversity-related illustrations to challenge the culturally and systemically biased norms. These inclusive images aim to promote equitable representation of diverse skin tones in medical educational resources.

The CPT® 2024 Professional Edition offers numerous features and benefits, including:

• Cross-references to popular AMA resources, such as CPT® Changes, CPT® Assistant, and Clinical Examples in Radiology, to enhance understanding of the CPT code set.
• A comprehensive index to quickly locate codes related to specific procedures, services, anatomical sites, conditions, synonyms, eponyms, or abbreviations.
• Anatomical and procedural illustrations to improve coding accuracy and understanding of the discussed services and procedures.
• A table of contents for the entire codebook and individual sections, enabling quick access and effective navigation.
• A complete list of code and code descriptor additions, deletions, and revisions for the 2024 changes.
• Multiple appendices providing additional information, including modifiers, add-on codes, vascular families, re-sequenced codes, MAAA and PLA services, COVID-19 vaccines and administration codes, and digital medicine-services taxonomy.
• New Appendix S, which offers guidance for classifying various AI applications for medical services and procedures.
• New Appendix T, listing all audio-only telemedicine CPT codes.
• Comprehensive E/M code selection tables to aid physicians and coders in assigning the most appropriate evaluation and management codes.
• Notes pages at the end of every code set section and subsection.

The AMA is committed to providing the most effective anti-piracy efforts, including the inclusion of the Amazon Anti-Piracy Sticker and non-intrusive light-yellow dots on almost every page to reduce print reproduction in accordance with copyright rules and laws.

By leveraging the CPT® 2024 Professional Edition, healthcare professionals can ensure accurate reporting of services rendered and secure appropriate reimbursement, while payers benefit from efficient claims processing. This comprehensive resource is an invaluable tool in the pursuit of accurate, equitable, and efficient medical coding and reporting.
