Some help

I am stuck on this one too! I have posted for help before because I am also stuck on Note 5 of the ASC. I never ever even get a hint to what I was doing correctly or incorrectly. I always here that coders are eager to help but I have yet to receive any! As for this one you are definitely missing a v code. You always have to code the birth...live, stillborn, 1, 2 etc. I cannot figure out the platelet disorder, sorry. I forget note 1 without reading the whole thing and my brain is totally mush right now. 585xx maybe? I thought this one only had 1 or 2 cpt codes but I could be wrong.

I still have not gotten Note 4 correct on the OB round. I have tried every icd9 code I could think of for platelet function disorder and history of disorder. I did get note 1. It will not let me review what I got. If you copy the whole note I will see if it jogs my memory. I unfortunately did not take down notes. I would love some help on Note 5 on the ASC one. I know I am missing two CPT codes but cannot figure them out!

Finished Note 4!

I got Note 4!!! Stop looking at the platelet disorder. You are just missing two V codes. One for the outcome of delivery and one for sterilization. I also figured out my ASC note. Good day for me!!! Now if only I could figure out Note 1 in Cardiology I would be in heaven.
