Pt is status post a TKR. How would you code for subsequent visits in reference to the TKR? I know we use V43.65, but this can only be used as a secondary dx. If the pt's original dx for the TKR was osteoarthritis (715.16), would you use a history of arthritis for the primary code (V13.4) for the f/u visits?
