I work at an Inpatient Psychiatric Hospital. We have both Psychiatrist and Medical Providers treating patients. I had a medical provider ask if she could use diagnosis code F45.0 (Somatization Disorder) for when she's treating a patient. Although it's in the ICD-10-CM Mental Disorder category, it does effect a patient physically. Could our medical provider use this code along with our psychiatrist?
