Code for elevated BP no longer present.
Our provider saw a patient with elevated blood pressure without diagnosis of hypertension. At the follow-up visit the patient's BP was back to normal. What diagnosis code is used for the follow-up? I can't find any personal history codes related to elevated BP. Do I just use R03.0 even though the condition wasn't present anymore?
Thanks!
