Hi.
I was once told by an "experience" coder to never code a mild condition. Has anyone ever heard of this? I discussed this same issue with another coder and they don't feel that is correct. I haven't seen any guidelines for this topics so I'm trying to confirm with any physical back up. Is this only correct only for certain conditions?
I currently have a physician diagnosis on his notes "Mild Obstructive Lung Disease".What do you think?
Any helps....
Thank You
