Hi!
I have a note for a patient who was seen in the ER for severe abdominal pain. I am wondering what category I should look under since it isn't Z3A (weeks of gestation) or Z34 (supervision of pregnancy). Do I code it as pregnant state, incidental? The diagnoses listed are RUQ abdominal pain, pulmonary nodules, chest pain with respiration, 2nd trimester pregnancy, and probable pleurisy. Thanks so much!
