Q: The CPC Exam Prep What are place of service codes and how are they used?  

A: The abbreviation for that is POC, if you didn't know. What I was able to do was just go get a screenshot of what a place of service looks like when you're trying to find it. You guys aren't going to have to do this or have this memorized. It's going to be in one, into your computer system you're working in. This particular one shows up like this. What they're saying is: where was the patient seen at? An 11 is in doctor's office. If they were an inpatient, that's a 21; outpatient is 22. Then, you got 23 for ER; and those ambulatory surgical centers we were talking about, which is 24. And all this is for letting the payer know where was the care given? That's all it is. And again, you don't have to have this memorized. Now, when you're dealing with them all the time, you will have them memorized.
