ICD 579.3 malnutrition following gi surgery as a cc
Hi everyone:
I was just wondering if anyone uses the above code in a pt post gi surg
that is on tpn, or for any other reason. Sometimes I desperately need a
cc (this is one of them) and we currently don't use this at our
facility.
Thanks in advance!!
