I code for multiple Family Practice offices and there is an on going discussion, whether it is appropriate to code a Physical Exam done with a pap and pelvic, breast done with the V70.0 or the V72.31. The problem is that the documentation states patient is here for the annual physical exam. That would direct me to use the V70.0 but they are doing the pap and pelvic, breast so should this be coded as the V72.31. I have queried some of my co-workers and they are coding this scenario with the V70.0 primary and the V72.31 secondary...this just does not seem right to me?????
