hello,

Can anyone help me to code Diffuse atherosclerosis of the right superficial femoral artery and right popliteal artery, asymptomatic., correctly?

I have come up with I70.201, but not sure if I am on the right track.

Thanks!
 
Hello,

after reviewing I agree with the code, there isn't much specificity for the type of artery its just generalized to "leg".

So code I70.201 is appropriate to cover both arteries.
