  1. That the code is listed out of numerical order
  2. That the code is listed in numerical order
  3. That the code used to be listed with a different number

Explanation
Answer: A - When you see the symbol # in front of a CPT code, it means that the code is listed out of numerical order. Throughout the CPT book, whenever you see the # symbol in front of a numerical CPT code, it means that the code has been re-sequenced so that it is not listed in numerical order with the rest of the CPT codes within that section.
