Which code indicates the final visit is asymptomatic and no functional deficiencies?

• A. G8539
• B. G8942
• C. G8542
• D. G forms

Answer: (C)

The main idea is to use the G-code that truly reflects the patient’s status at the final visit. When a patient ends care without symptoms and without functional limitations, the code chosen should communicate that absence of issues clearly. The G8542 code is the one that signifies an asymptomatic state with no functional deficiencies at the end of care, making it the best match for this scenario. The other codes describe different statuses—such as ongoing symptoms or functional limitations—or are not the appropriate status code for a completed, symptom-free visit. So, selecting the code that explicitly denotes no symptoms and no functional deficits is the correct approach.
