I wanted to clarify something... for a diagnosis such as Alzheimer’s dementia, G30.9 it directs you to use an additional code to identify whether it’s with behavioral disturbance or not. Does the provider specifically need to state if there is behavioral disturbance or not? If nothing is documented, is it okay to use the code for without behavioral disturbance? Or would I use G30.9 only? I appreciate any input.
