ICD-10-PCS: Orthopedic Procedure Coding provides comprehensive instruction on coding the top orthopedic procedures performed in U.S. hospitals, both simple and complex. With a special emphasis on difficult-to-code spinal procedures, the list includes:
Bone and Joint Anatomy
Bone Procedures
Biopsies
Osteotomy
Fracture treatment
Device Details
