CodingCâu 6 / 100

a.The anatomical site of the condition
b.The name of the treating provider's specialty
c.The condition, disease, or reason for the encounter
d.The type of insurance the patient carries
Giải thích
Diagnoses are indexed by the condition, disease, injury, or symptom (the main term), not by the body site. Anatomical site and other details usually appear as subterms indented beneath the main term. Coders locate the term in the Index, then verify the code in the Tabular List before final assignment.
