Hi,

To report BMI codes we should have evidence of associated diagnosis (Such as obesity,Morbid obesity,obese).

My question is Apart from these conditions (obesity,Morbid obesity,obese), any other supporting disease conditions are there?

Can we consider OSA (Obstructive sleep apnea) along with CPAP treatments as associated condition/evaluation (Supportive evidence) for BMI (more than 40).


Thanks and regards,
Dhanesh M
