If a provider documents both diabetes with CKD (E1122) and diabetes without complications (E119) in the assessment and plan and the coder added both to the claim. Would we loose the higher HCC code (E1122) in an audit because of the conflicting documentation? This has become an issue for our practices and we are worried that only the E119 will count in a CMS audit. Thanks for any help.
