When a new client comes in and you place them on birth control, the Encounter for initial prescription is given, for example Z30.11. If the client comes in for subsequential visits and remains on the same type of birth control, the Encounter for Surveillance... dx codes, for example Z30.41 are to be used. Is this correct?
Would you only assign the Encounter for initial prescription dx code if the client at a later visit changes the type of birth control she is on?
I really hope someone will answer me so I can pass along.
