What is the PDX: OHS/OSA vs Acute resp failure vs hypertension heart failure

Patient Admitted for AHRF and Acute HFpEF exacerbation, hypertension, thought to be secondary to untreated OHS/OSA.  Improvement in respiratory status following diuresis and initiation of BiPAP.

Our cardio providers believe the underlying etiology of their heart failure is due to their poorly tx OHS/OSA and believe the PDX should not go to the heart failure or resp failure code but possible the OHS/OSA.

What are your thoughts on the PDX on this case? Let me know if you need additional information.

Thanks Kim
