A pediatrician is asked to be in the room during the delivery of a baby at risk for complications. The pediatrician is in the room for 45 minutes. The baby is born and is completely healthy, not requiring the services of the pediatrician. What CPT® code(s) is/are reported by the pediatrician?

99360

Explanation:

CPT or Current Procedural Terminology codes is a list of medical codes which is used by hospitals, physicians, laboratories etc. They describe the action taken and the procedure done for a condition which is later used for billing and reimbursement purpose.

Here, a pediatrician has been called by some other physician tending to a woman in labor. The pediatrician does not have direct involvement in the procedure but is required to stay should any complication arises with the baby. CPT code 99360 describes the condition where a physician is called for standby service. This physician does not have a direct contact with the patient and is only required to be present for support and emergency. Thus, CPT code 99360 is reported by the pediatrician.

i don't think so because different teachers have different materials. tehy teach differently, unless you know for sure your teacher is the exact same as others. i would just contact ur teacher
