In chapter 2, the chapter review #3, the answer says G30.9 which states unspecified in the tabular list. The question is asking about a patient who has Alzheimer's disease with behavioral disturbance so wouldn't that code G30 (with behavioral disturbance) and F02.81? I do not understand why the answer is G30.9. Any help will be very appreciated! Thank you!
I agree that F02.81 should also be coded
"See category G30 and assign code(s) for a patient who has Alzheimer’s disease with behavioral disturbances."
*
Includes: Alzheimer's dementia senile and presenile forms
Use additional code to identify:
delirium, if applicable (F05)
dementia with behavioral disturbance (F02.81)
