I am not clear on whether to use Z01.419 gyn w/o abnormal findings or Z01.411 gyn exam w/ abnormal findings in certain situations. For example if the doctor documents vaginal atrophy and prescribes a hormone replacement therapy then I would code Z01.411 and N95.2 postmenopausal atrophic vaginitis. Sometimes the doctor documents atrophy and patient either doesn't want to use hormone therapy or the doctor doesn't suggest it. How should I code appropriately?
 
I do abnormal findings if the doctor has set the patient for further care (U/S or referrals) or treatment for said issue.
