I could really use some coding assistance on the following scenario.
A patient comes in for her delayed menses appointment; on the ultrasound they discover a gestational sac but no fetal pole and no fetal heart rate, the provider has the patient come back in a few weeks as the patient may be to early in her pregnancy to confirm. Would it be correct to code O36.80x0 along with 76817? The office visit we've been coding as Z32.00 and appropriate E&M visit.
Any assistance would be appreciated, thank you!

Would it be correct to code O36.80x0 along with 76817? The office visit we've been coding as Z32.00 and appropriate E&M visit.
