Procedure codes are alphanumeric codes used to identify specific medical, surgical, or diagnostic procedures performed by healthcare providers. They are part of standardized coding systems, such as the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) and the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), which help facilitate billing, ensure accurate record-keeping, and enable effective communication among healthcare professionals. By categorizing procedures, these codes assist in processing insurance claims and tracking healthcare services.

These codes are used when a service or procedure is performed that does not have a specific CPT code assigned to it. Practitioners must provide detailed reports to justify the use of unlisted codes, explaining the nature of the procedure, the reason for its necessity, and any relevant details to ensure proper reimbursement. Unlisted codes allow for flexibility in billing while maintaining a standardized coding system.

Add-on codes are used in the reporting of CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) procedure codes.A + (plus) symbol next to add-on codes describe a service or procedure that can be reported only in addition to a primary procedure. It may be identified in the coding book by descriptors such as "each additional" or "list separately in addition to primary procedure".Add-on codes are NEVER reported as stand-alone codes because they are considered an integral part of another procedure. They are never reported alone because the procedures they describe would not be performed unless another primary procedure was performed.
