Which codes relate specifically to medical services as opposed to surgical services?

The evaluation and management codes are specifically designed to address the medical services provided to patients, focusing on assessing and managing a patient's overall health and any ongoing medical conditions. These codes cover office visits, consultations, and follow-ups, where the primary objective is to evaluate a patient's status and determine the necessary medical interventions or treatments.

In contrast, the other options pertain to either specific types of procedures or specialties. Anesthesiology codes are connected to the management of anesthesia during surgical procedures, while lab and radiology codes refer to diagnostic testing and imaging services that contribute to the medical evaluation but are not strictly classified as direct medical services. Surgical codes, as the name implies, are related to operative procedures rather than the evaluation or management of a patient’s medical condition. Therefore, evaluation and management codes are the correct choice as they pertain specifically to medical services.
