Is there a personal history code for a benign tumor? I have a patient who in addition had a bone scan also was having a follow up of the previous tumor she had.
I am coding from a radiology report which does not identify how this tumor was removed. because there are 2 types of test completed 1 the bone scan and 2 the US of the pelvis to check on this tumor that is no longer there, I need to report 2 codes to cover the 2 tests that were completed for this patient.
for the bone scan which the DX was osteopenia, I have V8281, 733.90 and I have to deal with this US of pelvis and I do not know what to assign!
Help!
