Wiki Help with a dose amount

[Andra Striebeck]

Hello,

I need assistance with a dose coding question regarding Heparin. If 100un/ml
vial is used and the patient receives 3ml and we use code J1642 which is 10un/ml, what would be the correct dose amount to capture for the 3ml that the patient received? 3, 30 or 300?
