Hello. I'm a new CPC and I'm currently coding for a psychiatric hospital. The face sheet from where I'm coding has 5 parts - Axis 1 to Axis 5. The doctor wrote on Axis 3 (arrow going down) and TSH (Thyroid stimulating hormone). My question is: Is this the same as Hypothyroidism? Or, maybe I should use code 246.9? Thanks so much for your help!
