Hello,
Can anyone offer some advice on how you would code the following:
Lesion #2: 70% calcific stenosis of the mid right coronary artery
I keep debating on I25.10 or I25.84 or both! I think the I25.84 would best represent the CAD and following the "due to" in the alpha index would presume causal relationship. I don't think both unless CAD is present in another artery that is not calcified.
Thoughts??
Thanks in advance!!
