Can anyone help me with regards to the CLINICAL INFORMATION on a pathology report? From my understanding we are to code based on the diagnosis by the pathologist. If I need to query, query but with regards to the clinical information; can in some instances, in particular, STOOL testing (diarrhea R19.7 clinical info) , CYTOLOGY. Can the CLINICAL INFORMATION be used as the primary diagnosis?
