I'm a student and working on questions in the 2012 Step by Step workbook.

One of the questions for a diagnoses code reads:
Mitral valve regurgitation as a late effect of Fen-Phen.

Curious as to how you would code this. There are two codes for the answer.

Thanks.
 
First of all you need to know the use of Fen Phen was for therapeutic or poisoning. It seems this is a late effect of therapeutic use of Fen Phen. It can be coded as 424.0, 909.5 and E947.0


Hope that helps
