Hello Group:
Was hoping someone could please help me with the sequencing of the following diagnosis code(s).

v68.1
380.4
530.81
401.9

The claim was submitted with the above mentioned diagnosis code(s); in that order. The doctor documented in his chart note ; pt here for rx refills for 530.81, 401.9 also complaining of bloody ear discharge, cerumen removal was performed

My question is when there's a New condition; doesn't that trump the V68.1 code? Any and ALL input would be greatly appreciated!!
