Where this procedure name comes from
This name was written for iHealth by a language model, in plain language, from the descriptions hospitals published for this code. Before it was published it was checked automatically — for wording copied from the source, and against a confidence floor below which we publish no name at all — and we review a sample of these names by hand. It is written to help you compare prices, not as a description of your care.
73 hospitals published their own description for this code. Hospitals publish CPT items using the AMA's own descriptor text, which iHealth is not licensed to republish. We show the name we wrote instead.
