Which codes are most widely accepted for billing medical procedures?

  1. CCC Codes

  2. CPT Codes

  3. ICNP Codes

  4. NANDA Codes

The correct answer is: CCC Codes

The correct answer is A. CCC Codes. CCC codes, also known as Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes, are the most widely accepted codes for billing medical procedures. CPT codes are standardized codes used to describe medical, surgical, and diagnostic services provided by healthcare professionals. These codes are essential for ensuring accurate billing and reimbursement for healthcare services. The other options, B. CPT Codes, C. ICNP Codes, and D. NANDA Codes, are incorrect because CPT codes, not CCC codes, are most widely accepted for billing medical procedures. ICNP codes are used for nursing diagnoses, interventions, and outcomes in nursing informatics, and NANDA codes are used for nursing diagnoses, not billing medical procedures.
