      Persuasive with mod:

      Will update "CPT4" to just "CPT" to match VSAC and US Core.

      Examples in Figure 13 and 23 should also be fixed. Note that not only should the examples just say "CPT", they should also fix the codeSystem OID in use:

      <code code="388975008" displayName="Weight Reduction Consultation" codeSystem="2.16.840.1.113883.6.96" codeSystemName="CPT4" />

      The codeSystem should be 2.16.840.1.113883.6.12 and the codeSystemName should be CPT.

    Description

      This is a really minor issue but we have a stylistic inconsistency in the abbreviation for the Current Procedural Terminology, Fourth Edition code system: sometimes it is "CPT4" (without hyphen) and sometimes it is "CPT-4" (with hyphen). For consistency with CMS HCPCS Coding Questions I recommend we use the "CPT-4" (with hyphen) format throughout the specification. This impacts Figure 13, Figure 23, and Table 536.

      Note that Table 272 also uses the "CPT4" code system abbreviation, but I think that would have to be addressed separately through VSAC.
