Hello! I am wondering if anyone can help me to figure out what the ICD 10 codes are for the qualifying underlying physiological condition for vascular dementia? I looking for specific ICD 10 code examples. I have a BHI claim that I need to release where the provider only put in dx F01.50, no other codes listed. When I queried the provider for the underlying physiological condition the response was dx for history of cva - which ultimately even if it was changed to a sequela code for cva cannot go out as a primary code either.
Aside from this specific scenario my team and I need some clear guidance on what is an appropriate code to use before F01.50/1 as we have several providers using this diagnosis code and we are unsure what is acceptable as the primary code for vascular dementia.
Thanks in advance!
