Need clarification on billing Z01.411/Z01.419 when uterus is absent. According to Top 50 Codes we would bill Z01.411/Z01.419 with Z12.72. According to the study guide for COBGC, page 42, it states "Generally, a code from subcategory Z01.41- is an appropriate diagnosis for each of these, unless the patient's uterus is absent. In such a case, consider instead Z12.72...." So would it be correct to bill Z01.41- and Z12.72 when the uterus is absent?
