Does anybody know what dx code I would use for undesired fertility/complete family status? Could I use the sterilization code or is that used for the actual procedure done in the hospital?
 
If the visit was to discuss the patient's options, because she desires sterilization, I would use V25.09 Counseling, other (family planning advise).

If a procedure was done for sterlizaion, then V25.2 would be appropriate.
