Hi I am new to HCC coding- Dr. is seeing a pt with h/o DVT- pt still with treatment of Warfarin and Eliquis- however DR. reported D68.69(Secondary hypercoagulable state NOS).
It was my understanding D68.69 was to be used related to Afib -
Is is correct to use D68.69 related to DVT as well or would it need to change to Z79.01(Long term (current) use of anticoagulants)?
Thank you for your help.
