If the provider documents the following...."History of prostate cancer that is quiescent," how do you code this?
Would you report this as an active condition and use code 185 (prostate CA), or would you code this with code V10.46 (hx of prostate ca) since the provider uses the terminology of "history of?"
I should mention here that there is no mention in the documentation that the patient is currently be treated for the prostate cancer.
Thanks.
