Which type of code in CPT identifies temporary codes for data collection purposes?

  1. Category I Codes

  2. Category II Codes

  3. Category III Codes

  4. Case Manager

The correct answer is: Category III Codes

Category III Codes in CPT identify temporary codes for data collection purposes. These codes are used for emerging technologies, services, and procedures. They allow data to be collected to determine the effectiveness and utilization of these new technologies before potentially being moved to Category I or Category II codes. Category I codes are used for procedures and services widely performed in clinical practice, while Category II codes are used for performance measurement. Case Manager is not a type of code in CPT.
