Question
- When patients come in with COPD exacerbation and are put on oral antibiotics, do other collectors in city code as admitted with a CAP along with the COPD?
- at HSC is not the norm to see the written DX of CAP along with COPD exacerbation, yet or patient is prescribed antibiotics. Pat codes a CAP if on IV antibiotic but if prescribe oral antibiotics and not written DX of CAP, then she will not code as CAP. Pat says her interpretation is that it could it upper airway infection or even bronchitis, but Dr. has not committed to either DX. What do others do?
