The AMA requests that the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) code set be added to the standards listed in Section I: Representing Social Connection and Isolation. The CPT Evaluation and Maintenance services include assessing a patient’s social history.
CPT is a comprehensive and regularly curated uniform language that accurately describes medical, surgical, and diagnostic services and provides for reliable communication among users.

It is the most widely adopted outpatient procedure code set. Use of the CPT code set is federally required under HIPAA.
