Actually, not just the wrong laterality, but also the wrong section. The answer should be with a 4 instead of the 3. The 3's are for shoulder, and the 4's are for upper arm, and the scenario said upper arm. 24076, not 23076.
Once again thank you, because i haven't done any medical coding practice in months. I have only been working at a store and study a few medical terms here and there when I'm not just having leisure time, so without this channel i probably will never learn enough about medical coding to be ready to take the exam even though I took a college program for it 2019-2021
Quick question for the last question A 49 year old patient came to the hospital for a scheduled operation for his mass of left upper arm. I chose letter c because in letter d is show modifier RT for right side and this indicates the left side so was that a typo or would it be letter c? I know you said it would be letter d because of intramuscular but this is a little confusing because of the incorrect modifier since it was done on the left not right arm.
I have a question on the last question. The description states upper arm but all the codes in the answers are for shoulder. Why would codes for shoulder be used instead of for upper arm?
He actually missed it, it's not tumor yet, provider not confirmed that's why he said it's appeared to be benign, in last line it's sent to pathology for biopsy. So correct answer is C. Tell me if I'm missing anything i could be wrong as well.
Hello GUYS, the LAST question should be with LT MODIFIER INSTEAD OF RT.
Good catch
I was about to say lol
I just questioned that
I eliminated that option and was wondering how I got the answer wrong 🤣😐

You are out here doing the lords work for us newbie coders. Thank you x10000!!
Last question. I eliminated that because it was the RT modifier.
same that threw me off
Same I thought it was LT
i did the same. i think he was wrong here.
Its in left arm... I eliminated firstly by seeing right....😢
if the report says Upper Arm why are we looking at shoulder and not upper arm 24076 ?
i also wondered this. also why he chose the answer that meant RIGHT shoulder when it clearly said left.

I cannot tell you how helpful these have been for me! Concepts I was unsure of are now clear to me! Thank you!
Taking my exam in a few days and going through this game is great practice, i finished my coding classes last quarter so thank you for this!!
Did you pass???
taking my test Saturday. This is great and helpful thank you
helpful, informative and articulate. keep up the good work I enjoy and learn so much in your videos.
Very very helpful video .
Thanks a lot .

Hello. I have it pinned in the comment section. Thanks for bringing that up though.
thank u for this video!

Wonderful. Moving forward to the next video. However, this was the left upper arm, RT doesn't seem right. I'm thinking typo, should be LT...right?
Same Question I had
Please upload ep4
In last question modifier is RT but operation in on left upper arm?
Thanks for reminding me. I will put a note there. Thanks a bunch!!
Shouldn't it be 24076 LT ? 23076 Is shoulder 24076 is of the humerus (upper arm) ?
Option was C 23075 left side 2.5cm
Yes i pinned it in the comment section thanks
Shouldn't the last question be 23076-LT because it's the LEFT Shoulder?
