Hello
This is my first time posting. Can anyone guide me to where I can find information as to Texas laws that a coder cannot change a dx code on a claim if the provider did not give the appropriate one? From my understanding a coder abstracts from the operative report, enters charges, and is able to submit claim. Where I work at the physician enters the charges and we get it (coders) and audit to see if the charges they entered match with the operative report.
