Coding & billing
CPT
American Medical Association codes for procedures and services billed in US healthcare.
CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) is the AMA's code set for the services and procedures clinicians bill in the US — including E/M (evaluation-and-management) codes that account for most of outpatient billing. Scribes that suggest CPT codes from the visit conversation can speed billing meaningfully.
