When a patient comes for a well exam, the doctor orders the yearly labs-lipids, tsh, etc. Our doctors like to use this code, V70.0 ( for the labs). I have been told by other coders in my department, that you can't use that diagnosis code along. But, I don't understand the reasoning behind it. can someone guide me to a website that I can research it and provide document to the doctor to support the reasoning?
