Hepatitis C vs Carrier of Hepatitis C

I have a patient with Hepatitis C who has been seen by two providers at the practice. One of the providers is selecting 07054 for Chronic Hepatitis C without mention of Hepatic coma and the other provider is selecting V0262 for Hepatitis C carrier.

Which of these codes is correct? One of the providers is insisting both codes are correct because technically the patient having Hepatitis C "deems them" a carrier.

Can someone shed some light on this?

Thank you.
