Morning!
I have a chart of a patient that has a history of traumatic leg amputation at the HIP (total leg) and then successful reattachment.
I've not quite seen this before!
I'm not sure if I need to code a v code for the amputation, I don't see any reattachment codes, or since it's reattached I just should use V45.89?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
Thx.
