Does anyone know how to submit a diagnosis to AMA for approval? My Nurse Practitioner, Leanne , had a great one today and we could not find a code to fit the situation. She did a well child check on a 2 month old. The child was perfectly healthy. Unfortunately, the parent of the child asked some very strange and frankly shocking questions that led her to want to add this as a diagnosis...parental cognitive impairment. :D The mother wanted to know if her baby's belly button was ok. When Leanne assured her it was the mom said great because we want her to get it pierced. Again this was a 2 MONTH old. Leanne kept a straight face and asked if this was in the near future or later in life. Mom said later in life but we just want her to have the option...parental cognitive impairment.
