What dx code are others using for a diagnosis of "Screening" on a lab order? I have used Z13.9 and my manager is wondering if we can use Z00.00?
I agree with TThivierge - it depends what labs the provider is ordering to determine what best screening dx code to use =0)What dx code are others using for a diagnosis of "Screening" on a lab order? I have used Z13.9 and my manager is wondering if we can use Z00.00?
Hi! If you're main concern/issue is needing the provider to document with more detail in regards to this, I'd highly recommend reaching out to your manager to see if something can be initiated through your facility's Provider Education team. If you don't have a Provider Education team, the next would be Compliance.What dx code are others using for a diagnosis of "Screening" on a lab order?
