A patient needs to have his head manipulated by a chiropractor. What is the correct code for this area of manipulation?
  1. 98940
  2. 98941
  3. 98942
  4. 98943
Explanation
Answer: D - 98943 is the correct code for extraspinal chiropractic manipulative treatment of one or more regions.
Codes 98940, 98941, and 98942 are all incorrect because these codes all refer to spinal manipulation and not the extraspinal region of the head.
