Screening mammogram for high-risk patient (V76.11)
ICD-9 code V76.11 for Screening mammogram for high-risk patient is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range -PERSONS WITHOUT REPORTED DIAGNOSIS ENCOUNTERED DURING EXAMINATION AND INVESTIGATION.

My provider reported 99204. I only see the HPI as a EPF which would bring this to a 99202.
Can anyone take a stab at this and let me know what you think?
Thanks,
Jo
