Updates have been made to the July 2 list of CPT® Category II short and medium descriptor documents. According to the American Medical Association (AMA), two codes were inadvertently excluded from the earlier posting.

The two codes are:

•  4326F  PT (OR CAREGIVER) QUIRIED RE AUTO DYSFXN SYMPTOMS
• 4328F  PT (OR CAREGIVER) QUIRIED RE SLEEP DISTURBANCES

Updated versions of the Category II short descriptors and medium descriptors documents are posted on the CPT® Category II codes page of the AMA website.

The AMA also posted July 22 errata for the CPT® 2010 Book.

Corrections in CPT® 2010 include:

• Changing the copyright year from 2010 to 2009.
• The addition of parenthetical language, “Do not report 92542 in conjunction with 92540 or the set of 92541, 92544, and 92545,” for parentheticals following codes: 92541, 92542, 92544, and 92545.

   Is CPT going to correct their omission of 2012 CPT code 22633 as an applicable parent or primary procedure code for the add-on codes of 22840, 22851, and 20930-20938?
   These add-on codes would have been allowed with codes 22612 and 22630 which 22633 replaced.
