Patient comes in to the ED with bilateral leg pain. Dr charts "pt states she is 22 weeks pregnant." That is literally the only time he mentions the pregnancy. Discharge diagnosis is Muscle spasm (again, no mention of the pregnancy) How would I code this? I know I cant use the V22.2 code because he doesn't state that the pregnancy is incidental.
