I have a patient that has a burn from an IV infiltration where they were receiving potassium. I need to assign T80.1XXS and T25.321S have been assigned already but the claim is being denied due to the dx. I don't know if I need to assign another dx code since T codes aren't favored as primary dx. Thanks!!!
