Regards,

I am trying to figure out if we can code "S/P Hyperglicemia DM" as 250.80. I am doing an audit on a Hospital's Medical Record and they used that code for the "S/P".

Is this correct? I think it is not but I want to do a double check since the ICD-9 Manual does not state anything about "S/P" coditions. Maybe it is considered "History".
