Hello,
Our physicians keep stating History of COPD, History of Hypertension, History of Chronic Kidney Failure.
I was taught that if it is a condition that will never be cured or resolved you would code as current as chronic condition.
I am coding for professionial side not the faculity side.
Can anyone clarify on this?
Thanks,
Lynn
