Hi Everyone
We saw an 18 month old today because daycare found an small orange worm in her wet diaper- no poop, just wet. Dr. feels most likely crawled in from environment- pt has NO symptoms-parents just here to get a note for daycare. - we sent the worm for ID- but cannot find an ICD9 code to fit the visit- Can use V65.5 if desperate-but insur never pays. All the other codes are overkill- anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
