ICD-10 Codes for Cotton Hill's death? (comical answers only)
Was talking about funny medical codes and cotton hill (King of the Hill) with a friend.
Curious how you would code this:
Elderly man has a war flashback in a habachi restaurant. Climbs on top of the flat top grill, slips on a shrimp and falls onto his back. This is standing height, but note he has no shins. His ankles are surgically attached to his knees, so standing height isn't normal standing height for the average elderly man. According to the internet, he was 6'2 before he lost his shins, and 5' even after.
I figured this would be a fun use of this sub's time, but feel free to tell me how much I am wasting your experience.
