Before she went to the operating room the next morning, nursing personnel noted that she had apparently developed a urinary tract infection, and laboratory tests confirmed a diagnosis of urinary tract infection due to E. coli. Because of the infection, the surgery was canceled, antibiotic therapy was instituted, and the patient was discharged on the third hospital day to continue antibiotic therapy at home. She will be seen in the physician’s office in three weeks, and surgery will be rescheduled. Hints: Remember the reason for the admission is the principal diagnosis.  You will have a total of 4 codes to assign- the principal diagnosis followed by 3 additional codes.  Remember to use the decimal point and capital letters.   There are no procedure codes. 1. 2. 3. 4.
