I am enrolled in the CPC Preparation Course. I have seen a couple times a diagnosis code that I have a question about.
The code is V58.11. I work in an Hematology/Oncology office where we give chemotherapy treatments. I have only been in this field for 11 months, so I questioned my co-worker about this. She has been with this practice for 6 years. She stated they tried using the V codes before, for chemo visits only, in the past and carriers would reject the claims. Can anyone put some clarification on this issue and how it may affect reimbursements, if used vs. not used.
Thank you for any insight, you can provide.
