I'm somewhat confused with this, I'm working towards getting certified and I think I've found some contradictions. I could definitely use some help figuring this one out.
E11.622 states to use additional code (L97)
L97.319 states code first underlying condition (E11.622)
AAPC states use causation dx first. So, I thought I should code E11.622 first and then L97.319. Which is the correct one?
E11.622/L97.319 or L97.319/E11622
Thank you.
