Amazing Charts keeps a database of the CPT and HCPCS codes your practice bills against, along with the charge tied to each one. If a code you need isn't already in that list, or you want to set up a custom charge for an existing code, you can add it yourself from Administrative Options.
This guide walks through adding a new code from start to finish.
