Wanted to get other people’s input on how you all code chronic diarrhea. K52.9 or R19.7.

Thanks.
 
I responded to your post in the auditing forum - please avoid the duplicate posts to multiple places in the forum, it's really not necessary and against the forum rules, thanks.

I am glad you posted this question here, as I would not have seen it under another topic. To answer your question, I would code chronic diarrhea as K52.9 since the book leads you to that code under "diarrhea, chronic"
