CPT stands for the Current Procedural Terminology. It is a medical code set maintained by the American Medical Association through the CPT Editorial Panel. It describes medical, surgical, and diagnostic services. It is designed to communicate uniform information about medical services and procedures among physicians, coders, patients, accreditation organizations, and payers for administrative, financial, and analytical purposes.
