I’m looking for clarity when using encounter for GYN exam with abnormal findings not related to GYN portion of the visit
Pt presents to establish and her Physical
Comprehensive Hx 10 system exam with 9 bullets for female exam
her HPI and ROS detailed a concern with with a cyst with changes
in addition Exam revealed thromegaly
all issues were addressed in the assessment and plan
I’m wonder if z01.411 is appropriate since the abnormal findings aren’t GYN related
would it be more appropriate to use z01.01(27 yr old) for the abnormal physical findings and z01.419 since the Gyn portion of the exam was normal.
Honestly I thought that using both codes better defined the visit
however billing rejected
Is there a better way to describe the OV?
Very much appreciate your time and advise
