Problem:
This 85-year-old female patient was noted to have three to four falls in the past two months at ABC Nursing Home. Patient fell yesterday from her wheelchair and hit the left frontal temporal area of her head causing a contusion. For this reason, the patient was brought to the hospital for observation and further workup. The patient's exam was remarkable for moderate ataxia. Past medical history includes senile dementia-Alzheimer's, late onset type, depression and emphysema. Current medications include Zoloft and Theophylline. CT scan of the brain noted that the patient had multiple masses in the brain due to metastatic disease. It was felt that the patient's ataxia was most likely on the basis of the metastatic disease of the brain. These results were discussed with the patient's family. After much discussion regarding the treatment options, the family decided that they did not want the patient to undergo further tests and/or evaluation. It was the family's decision that the patient be transferred back to the nursing home and put under hospice care. Which of the following is the correct code assignment? Need Assignment Help?
