When an active chemotherapy treatment patient sees the physician for a follow up office visit only with the Oncologist (no chemotherapy administered that day,) I was taught to sequence the cancer diagnosis first, and include Z51.11 and/or Z51.12 sequenced as last. I've never had a claim reject but one has recently hit an edit due to this.
Does anyone else include Z51.11 and/or Z51.12 for an E/M visit for date of service that chemotherapy is not being administered?
