hospice - malnutrition
I have been researching Marasmus Malnutrition in adults for severe malnutrition. found that adults in America can have this. But asking for opinions from other Coders. Is there any other documentation from other entities that may show a different diagnosis that would be better for severe protein malnutrition when a patient is very ill and is unable to eat and due to this the patient is not going to make it much longer.
Thank you all for any assistance.
