Suggested Answer: C

The procedure performed is a bilateral screening mammogram with computer-aided detection (CAD). CPT code 77067 is for bilateral screening mammography with CAD. ICD-10-CM code Z12.31 is for an encounter for screening mammogram for malignant neoplasm of the breast. Z80.3 is for a family history of malignant neoplasm of the breast. Therefore, the correct coding is 77067, Z12.31, Z80.3. Reference: CPT Professional Edition (current year), ICD-10-CM (current year).

I think the shoulder has three main bones, and I believe it's the clavicle, scapula, and humerus. That sounds right, doesn't it?

I feel confused about this one. I keep mixing up the bones of the shoulder with those in the arm.

Ugh, I'm drawing a blank on the shoulder bones. Was it something like the radius, ulna, and olecranon? Or was that the elbow? Time to start eliminating the wrong answers.

The shoulder bones? Let me think... I know the humerus is one, but I can't remember the other two. Guess I'll have to make an educated guess on this one.

Hmm, I'm pretty sure the shoulder is made up of the clavicle, scapula, and humerus. I'll double-check that in my notes to be sure.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem similar, so I'll need to carefully read through each one to figure out the best answer.

This question is making my head spin! I know the shoulder has something to do with the arm, but I can't recall the specific bones. I'll just guess and go with option A.

Wait, wasn't it the carpal, radius, and humerus? I can never remember the bones in the shoulder. Oh well, I'll have to go with option B just to be safe.
