Explanation:

To determine the correct options, we analyze the HCPCS Level II Alphabetic Index.

• "Sign, symptom, or complaint" is not typically a key word here as HCPCS Level II focuses on supplies, services, drugs, orthotics/prosthetics.
• "Service, medical supply, or surgical supply" are key words as HCPCS Level II codes services and supplies.
• "Brand or generic name of the drug" are key words for drug coding in HCPCS Level II.
• "Orthotic or prosthetic" are key words as HCPCS Level II codes these devices.

Answer:

B. Service, medical supply, or surgical supply, C. Brand or generic name of the drug, D. Orthotic or prosthetic
