Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am learning how to code so I have a document that stated ? "VERY MILD PERIHILAR STREAKY OPACITIES, WHICH CAN BE SEEN WITH A VIRAL OR VIRAL-LIKE ILLNESS. NO FOCAL CONSOLIDATION/LOBAR PNEUMONIA IS IDENTIFIED. " so I coded for Lobar Pneumonia because it is identified but my answer was wrong? I don't understand, the answer was for Perihilar streaky opacities?
