Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

S22.42xA = Fracture of one rib, left side, initial encounter 
G89.11 = Acute pain due to trauma 
V80.010A = Horse riding accident, initial encounter 
Y92.39 = Other specified recreational activity, activity to be specified 
Y93.52 = Activity, rodeo and equestrian activities

Option A includes R52 which is not necessary since G89.11 already indicates acute pain due to trauma. Option B includes G89.18 which is a code for other chronic pain not specified as due to trauma. Option D does not include the correct pain code and includes an unnecessary code for unspecified general symptoms.
