Adding CPT and Custom Codes to Practice Better

You can manually add CPT and custom codes into Practice Better. These codes will be stored in your system and are available for use at any time.

2) Then, click on the Fast Action Button and select Add CPT procedure code.  

3)  Add the details of your code in the mandatory fields below and select Done. An optional modifier can be included; this will automatically populate the Procedure Code Modifiers field when adding the CPT code to superbills and CMS-1500 forms.

You can edit your CPT and Custom Codes in Practice Better at any time as well.
