During a visit, a patient diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes mellitus was provided with a continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion pump. The medical assistant needs to select the appropriate HCPCS Level II code for the supply item. Which code should be used to accurately bill for this device?
E0784
A4209
A4605
K0553
The correct answer accurately identifies 'A4605' for the insulin infusion pump as the code for a Diabetes management supply, specifically a supply for external drug infusion pump, short term (less than a month), silicone catheter. It is crucial to choose the code that closely matches the description of the supplied item, in this instance, considering the type of diabetes, the fact that it is an insulin infusion pump, and that it's clearly designated as a short-term usage item. The incorrect answers, although related to diabetes supplies, do not match the description of a short-term insulin infusion pump supply.
