Have seen 242.00 (graves disease) and 241.0 (non toxic nodular goiter) coded together. This Dr says the thyroid nodule is not toxic so he does not think calling this a toxic goiter is quite correct. These two codes do not seem to go together. Would 242.30 cover the two conditions or is it appropriate to code them seperately?
