Hi!
When you are coding a specialty such as cardiology PRO FEE services, do you use just the dx codes that the cardiolgist is treating? Or do you add all of the other dx codes also? ie: pt has HTN, COPD, CHF, Ulcer on bottom of foot, generalized anxiety, Neoplasm unsp. breast, CKD, DM and seizure disorder....what dx codes would you put in and what would you leave off? Cardiologist directly addresses HTN, CHF and mentions past MVR & CABG in 2018 . Thanks
