Obstetric and Gynecologic Ultrasound: Coding and Legal Issues

Karan Aluwalia*

The topics of ultrasound practice-related coding and liability are not frequently covered in ultrasound treatises. The paper covers these crucial subjects, starting with the proper Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) and International Classification of Diseases, 10th edition (ICD-10) coding in ultrasound procedures when assessing early pregnancy and gynecologic problems. The second section of the article highlights common mistakes that might result in liability in obstetric and gynecologic ultrasonography practise. To explain the concepts, concrete examples and situations are used to illustrate the discussion.
