Do family history ICD 10 codes count towards your diagnoses points in medical decision making? I work at a Urology office and we are seeing a patient for microscopic hematuria. Patient also has a family history of prostate cancer and so they decided to run a psa. Does the family history of prostate cancer count as 1 point new/stable for diagnoses?
 
I wouldn't count that towards your MDM in the diagnosis/treatment field. That's not a current dx that could be said to be new/stable for the patient. You can count it in your data reviewed area of order of lab tests since they are running the psa.
