Hello Coding masters,
Here is another one for discussion.
Is it allowed to code for both Atrial Fibrillation I48.x and Secondary hypercoagulable state aka Other thrombophilia D68.69 ?
Optum has a guidance document out there (see link) that describes the relationship.
The ICD-10 doesn't have additional code requirements for A. fib or any direct Coding clinic guideline to support such a clinical relationship otherwise.
Any thoughts?
