Hi,

I got a senario, in assessment documented as metastatic prostate disease. Pls help me in getting the correct code.


Thanking you,

Metastatic prostate cancer

Hello,

This should be coded as 185, 199.1, Since there is no specification of primary or secodary as per AHA coding guidelines need to use above mentioned codes for the metastatic prostate cancer.

Thanks,
Prem Kumar Mahalingam.
