New! Stay current with the latest HCPCS code information via electronic quarterly updates.

Use this CD-ROM data file to import HCPCS Level II codes and descriptions into your billing and claims reporting software. This CD-ROM contains:

  • All current and official HCPCS Level II codes - Official HCPCS Level II codes and both short and full descriptions

  • A code status field to indicate whether a code was added or changed

  • A field containing the MCM and CIM policy references, Medicare statutes and Medicare coverage (Special Coverage Instructions, Noncovered or Invalid for Medicare and Carrier Discretion)

  • Two code description lengths: the 35-character abbreviated code descriptions and the full, unabbreviated code descriptions

  • A separate file containing all HCPCS Level II modifiers

  • This title includes a free HCPCS codebook - One copy of the book AMA HCPCS is also included with the purchase of this data file

Technical Note: This data file is provided in a tab-delimited file format and a fixed-field format and can be used in any database, spreadsheet, or other application that accepts a text (TXT) file format. Please keep in mind that this data file is not software. There is no search application. Check with your data processing professional to ensure compatibility with your existing billing or claims reporting software.

Please remember: The government no longer allows a grace period for annual code sets. The new HIPAA Transaction and Code Set Rule requires providers to use national medical code sets that are valid at the time that a service is provided. ICD-9-CM code revisions become effective October 1st each year while CPT and HCPCS code revisions become effective January 1st. In order for you to meet this requirement, you must have the revised CPT, HCPCS, and ICD-9-CM codes in your possession before the implementation dates. The best way to do this is to order your code books early. Review current coding resources.
