I try my best to include as many ICD-9 codes into my pathology reports as possible. Sometimes in doing so I inadvertently add incorrect codes in addition to correct ones. My colleague told me to just include only one but a correct ICD-9 code because according to him the charges could be denied or reduced if you include incorrect ICD-9 codes no matter if there is already a correct ICD-9 code in the report. Does anybody have any idea about this? Please let me know because I am confused now.
