I have a quick question: Patient receives an epidural for labor admitted with Dx code:
V22.1 patient fails to progress with dilation and eventually goes in for a C-Section which now the Dx code for C-section would refer to the failure to progress.... My Question is what Dx code would you use with the labor epidural charge (the V code or the failure to progress?) hmmmm not really sure big debate on it today in the office - thanks for your responses....
