CPT codes report which of the following?

CPT codes describe the procedures and services performed during a patient encounter. They are used to bill for the physician’s work and the specific services provided, such as examinations, imaging, labs, or surgeries. Diagnoses are coded separately with ICD-10-CM codes to justify the reason for the service. Patient demographics and facility location appear in other claim fields, not in CPT coding. So CPT codes report procedures/services.
