What is subheading and heading CPT?

In the context of medical coding, CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) codes are used to describe medical, surgical, and diagnostic services. A heading is a broad category that encompasses a range of related procedures, while a subheading provides more specific details under that category. For example, a heading might cover "Surgery," and subheadings could include various types of surgical procedures like "Orthopedic Surgery" or "Cardiac Surgery." This hierarchical structure helps in organizing and identifying specific medical services for billing and documentation purposes.
