Hello,
What is the correct code please?
I am always confused which to code 1) excessive sputum (R09.3 or 2) Other Foreign Object in Other Parts of Respiratory Tract causing aspiration. I feel that 2) referring to "foreign object" is inaccurate because mucous isn't a foreign object, IMO.
thank you,
Sandra
