What kind of support is needed to report this code? Do I need to see an immunosuppressant in the meds list? Does the provider need to tell me the drug?

This was dated in 2020 but might help. It gives examples of when to assign.
This one is an AL document but mentions the code: https://providers.bcbsal.org/portal...5-4ee9-8b79-af8c-5e37347449ab?t=1678981703123
Also check AHA Coding Clinic® for ICD-10-CM
As with all diagnoses though, the provider documentation would have to specifically state this. It can't be assumed by a coder just due to a med list.
