Adding Custom Codes

Coral includes a full library of standard CDT, CPT/HCPCS, and ICD-10 codes. If your practice needs a code that isn't in the library, you can add your own under Practice Settings → Procedures & Codes.

Browse and search codes​

The Procedures & Codes page lists every code available to your practice. Use the search box and the category filters (CDT, CPT/HCPCS, ICD10) to find a code, and Hide deprecated to leave out retired ones.

Add a custom code​

Step 1 — Start a new code​

Click New Code.

The New Code button

Step 2 — Fill in the code details​

Complete the form:

  • Category — the type of code: CDT, CPT/HCPCS, or ICD10
  • Type — the clinical category (for example, diagnostic, restorative, endodontics, periodontics)
  • Sub Category and Sub Type — optional finer classification
  • Code Name — a short label
  • Code — the code itself
  • Description — the full description

The New Code form fields

Step 3 — Save​

Click Save Code. The code is now available throughout Coral — including when adding procedures, building claims, and setting fees.

The Save Code button

note

If a code is no longer used, edit it and mark it Deprecated instead of deleting it — deprecated codes stay out of the way (hidden by Hide deprecated) without breaking records that already reference them.
