(A patient arrives with pain due to a chest injury from blunt force.

Chest radiography codes are selected by thenumber of viewsperformed. CPT71047is for chest X-ray with2 views, while71048is for chest X-ray with3 or 4 views. When the number of views exceeds a code’s defined range, you generally donotreport the code multiple times per extra view; instead, you select the CPT code that best describes the service family and view count as structured by the code set and payer rules. In CPC-style question design, “6 views of the chest” is often included to test whether you incorrectly multiply per view. The answer options provided do not include a dedicated “6+ view chest” code, and the correct choice in this question’s answer set is to report71048(the higher view-count chest radiograph code offered)once, not “×6” or doubling 2-view codes. Option A and B reflect incorrect per-view/per-unit reporting. Therefore, within the provided choices, the correct answer is71048.
