Wiki favor high grade cervical dysplasia

[jam1959]

Just read an article that pathologists are to use new terminology for cervical dysplasia, low grade for CIN 1 and 2 and high grade for CIN 2 and 3. So if the pathologists report states favor high grade dysplasia and not CIN 1, 2 or 3 OR mild, moderate or severe dysplasia. What diagnosis code do we use? MD states it is high grade cervical dysplasia.

I would code it as R87.613 HGSIL.

R87.613 would be for cervical PAP. If the pathology was from biopsy, or a procedure (D&C, LEEP, etc.), based on previous advise from my physician, I would use D06.9 CIN III if the pathology report states high grade.
