Will COVID always be primary ? Unless mentioned like ob, sepsis and transplant complications.?
coding clinic 1st q 2021
when COVID meets definition of principal dx it should be sequenced first. Unless another guideline requires certain codes be like obstetrics , sepsis, transplant complications .
 
Well always is a strong word lol coding changes frequently so we can not say always.

Please see this free resource:


If you need more info CCO has a big thread on COVID for club members if you are interested in joining.
