Which of the following statements about medical coding is incorrect?

ICD, CPT, and HCPCS provide a standard set of codes used to transform medical diagnoses and procedures into code numbers that can be universally recognized and interpreted.

ICD codes are published by the World Health Organization.

CPT codes were developed and are copyrighted by the American Medical Association.

HCPCS expands CPT codes to include non physician services and durable medical equipment.
