there are different opinions on COPD with asthma. whenever these combined codes appear I usually code only COPD as asthma is included in COPD. There is also a note under J44 series stating asthma with COPD, but code also type of asthma if applicable. if is select unspecified type of asthma with COPD it leads to two codes J44.9 and J45.909.
please suggest should i code both or just COPD?
