If it is traumatic would'nt you have to go with pregnancy complicated by the injury? like a 648.93 first and then the 867.x?
Yes Debra,
For traumatic code, we need to first code with other complications of pregnancy and then with 867.X. I missed it in my previous post as i was concentrating more on the non-traumatic code - 658.8X.
Thanks for the reply and I hope Karen is now clarified on the thread.
Thank You and Have a Great Day!
