What are the symbols in the CPT manual?

In the CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) manual, symbols are used to convey specific information about codes. For example, the bullet symbol (●) indicates a new code, while the triangle (▲) signifies a revised code. The asterisk (*) denotes a code that has specific instructions or guidelines related to its use, and the plus sign (+) indicates an add-on code that should be reported in conjunction with a primary procedure. These symbols help healthcare professionals quickly interpret and apply coding information accurately.
