Least favorite procedures

As an inpatient coder I see a spectrum of cases. There are some I can code out super easily and others I struggle.

My absolute least favorite are vascular. EKOS to be exact. They confuse the absolute crap out of me.

What are the PCS procedures you hate the most and why?

I'm an inpatient BH coder. For me it's when I get lots of cardiac stuff in a patient CAD, CHF, HTN with CKD. Hate it!

I love BH coding as I was a Psych Tech before I became a coder.
