Provider refills a prescription, but the visit is not related to the chronic condition the prescription is for and the provider does not address the chronic condition, you would not include the diagnosis code related to the chronic condition, correct? I am having issues with one of my providers stating we can code the chronic condition and I do not believe that is correct.
