When a patient is a P3 or P4, I always add additional diagnoses that supports it since we get additional units for those modifiers with some payers; however with P2 (mild systemic disease) I don't since we do not get any extra payment for that modifier. Should I code the supporting dx code for P2?
I always wonder, when is it appropriate to add comorbidities and how many should be added?
