Pt was seen in ED two days ago, dx'd w/ fx ribs. Today she fell out of bed on the same side, now complains of pain and painful breathing. Dr's final dx is "fx ribs." ![Roll eyes :rolleyes: :rolleyes:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Is there a way to indicate the RE-injury, or do I just code 807.03 (closed fx, 3 ribs) and 786.52 (painful respiration) e8844 (accidental fall from bed)?
