I have a case where a young boy came in and was bitten by a pit bull. He was at his mothers house and a friend of hers had this dog and it bit the young boy. Information on the dog was unattainable and the owner of the dog is not cooperating with the history of shots so the boy will have to go and get rabies prophylaxis. What E-code do I use besides E906.0 for dog bite? Is there another E-code I can use to describe the dangerous dog bite.
Thanks much.
