I am coding the following note:
"(umbilical) cord off, healed. Hemorragic discharge. No granuloma.
Cauterised with silver nitrate in office."
Since there was no granuloma, my question is if 17250 is still appropriate or should I be looking at a destruction code? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
