Hello,
Looking for input on diagnosis coding for Cancer Surveillance.
Right parotid low/intermediate grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma: Patient doing well with no evidence of disease recurrence at 6 years out. Recurrence of disease is exceedingly rare at this time, recommend annual follow up
- Continue surveillance in survivorship Clinic, patient will return to clinic if notices anything concerning.
Would I only code for diagnosis
Z85.818-Personal history of malignant neoplasm of other sites of lip, oral cavity, and pharynx
or would I code it
Z08-Encounter for follow-up examination after completed treatment for malignant neoplasm [Z08 (ICD-10-CM)]
C80.1-Malignant (primary) neoplasm, unspecified [C80.1 (ICD-10-CM)]
Thank you
