I have a patient, initially seen and diagnosed with a sprain, returns for follow-up a month later. Physician codes 845.00 and 719.47 at her second visit. First question, is the sprain still acute, or would you code pain first diagnosis and code second late effect of sprain/strain at this point in time? Thank you for your assistance.
