Re: Code Z71.3 Dietary Counseling and Surveillance
Visit to primary care physician.
Dx: Morbid Obesity, BMI 43.7
Impression states: "We discussed the need for portion control due to his over-nourishment status."
Is code Z71.3 (Dietary Counseling and Surveillance) an appropriate code in addition to the Morbid Obesity code and BMI code?
Thank You!!
