Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Z85.3 is the correct ICD-10-CM code for a personal history of malignant neoplasm of breast, which is appropriate since the patient had breast cancer in the past and is now receiving a prosthesis after mastectomy. CPT codes 19342 (Insertion of breast prosthesis following mastopexy, mastectomy or in reconstruction) and 19396 (Preparation of moulage for custom breast implant) are correct for the procedures described.
