Can someone please explain if you can use a V code as a primary diagnosis for an E/M visit? And then I have another unrelated question- If a patient comes in for a post op visit from an excision of a cyst, would you use a V58.49 code or V58.78 more specific code? And would this be the only code used or would you have to use the V code and the code for ganglion cyst? Please advise.
Thanks
