Sadly, there is more testing for chol R/T obesity. If the kid has high chol
I can see child on a regular basis for dietary counseling, That is a valid
diagnosis code. However, if a kid is just obese, not high chol, I can't
bill for visits for the diagnosis of obesity!!! Now how screwed up is
that?? Pat in SNJ
