CCI Codes

Intervention coding is usually expressed using 5-digit codes. The description of treatment is usually at a high level, which means that one intervention code may reflect several different treatments in the same category.

Example: "Stimulation"

The codes for "stimulation" are used when delivering all forms of electro stimulation (e.g. FES, TENS, interferential) as well as ultrasound treatment. There are no distinct 5-digit codes that specify which form of stimulation energy is used.

Note: When coding for assessments, where possible, a GAP assessment code should be chosen.
