Which term indicates excision or removal of a part of the body?

  1. Above, upon

  2. In, within

  3. Excision, removal

  4. Pain

The correct answer is: Excision, removal

The term that indicates excision or removal of a part of the body is "Excision, removal." In the medical billing and coding terminology, excision refers to the surgical removal or cutting out of a body part, tissue, or organ. It is important for billers to understand these terms accurately to ensure proper coding and billing for procedures performed. Options A, B, and D do not directly relate to the excision or removal of a body part, making them incorrect in the context of the question.
