Diagnosis Code: 79415 - Post OP Bleeding GI
Comorbid Diagnosis: No
Charlson Comorbid coding (pre ICD10): 0
Program: CC & Med
Status: Currently Collected


This diagnosis is to be coded for the procedure to address post gastro-intestinal (GI) surgery bleeding.

For the diagnosis to code that post-GI-surgery bleeding occurred, code Post OP Bleeding - GI.

Example, if patient is admitted to the ICU from the OR and there is no specific surgical code between 783 to 797 to use to code surgery was done to fix a GI bleed, this is the code used. This code is a surgical intervention/procedure.

Potential Change

Template:Potential Change This dx name is very similar to it's medical problem counterpart Post OP Bleeding - GI. If someone looked at the DX alone without considering it's diagnosis they would not have a chance to get it right. Could we officially rename it something like "Surg for post-op GI bleeding"?Ttenbergen 20:29, 2012 December 6 (EST)
