The HCPCS is divided into two principal subsystems, referred to as level I and level II of the HCPCS:
o
Level I of the HCPCS is comprised of CPT (Current Procedural Terminology), a numeric coding system
maintained by the American Medical Association (AMA). The CPT is a uniform coding system consisting of
descriptive terms and identifying codes that are used primarily to identify medical services and procedures
furnished by physicians and other health care professionals.
o
Level II of the HCPCS is a standardized coding system that is used primarily to identify products, supplies,
and services not included in the CPT codes, such as ambulance services and durable medical equipment,
prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies (DMEPOS) when used outside a physician's office. Because Medicare
and other insurers cover a variety of services, supplies, and equipment that are not identified by CPT codes,
the level II HCPCS codes were established for submitting claims for these items.
