Answer to Question 1

Answer: Level I HCPCS.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Benefits are speeding and optimizing proper payment of claims, minimizing billing mistakes, reducing the chances that an audit will be conducted by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) or the Office of Inspector General (OIG), and avoiding conflicts with the self-referral and anti-kickback statutes.
