When I first working at PHS, I had a chance to audit dental charts. I didn’t know how to code a dental procedure before. All I knew was that ‘it uses only HCPCS codes for procedures’. My trainer gave me thisPowerPointand tell me to study it. She said it was a very goodpower pointand I would know how to code Dental procedure after reading it.

The power point IS very good. This is copyright protection information and please do not share or reproduce it in anyway.

You only need to complete the last questions case (#5) on thepowerpoint.
