These are for CPT and HCPCS codes for physician and outpatient hospital settings. They affect reimbursement so they're important to understand. The NCCI was created by CMS to • Prevent unbundling of services; • Prevent incorrect payments from being made due to inappropriate CPT and HCPCS code usage; • Detect incorrect or inappropriate reporting of combinations of CPT and HCPCS codes; and • Curtail improper coding practices that lead to inappropriate increased payment. NCCI edits are performed on every possible pairing of CPT and HCPCS codes. They were developed and continue to be enhanced using: • Coding conventions defined in the American Medical Association's CPT manual; • National and local policies and edits; • Coding guidelines developed by national societies; • Analysis of standard medical and surgical practice; and • Review of current coding practice.
