Oth ad rcts d/t milk /dair prod w tolerance to bkd milk,subs

This code signifies an adverse reaction to milk and dairy products, excluding anaphylaxis, in a patient who can tolerate baked milk. The reaction is not life-threatening but causes discomfort or other symptoms. This code is specifically for follow-up encounters after the initial diagnosis and treatment.

Use this code for patients presenting for follow-up care related to a previously diagnosed adverse food reaction to milk and dairy, where the patient has demonstrated tolerance to baked milk. This would apply when monitoring the patient's condition, adjusting management, or addressing ongoing non-anaphylactic symptoms.

• Ensure documentation clearly states the patient's tolerance to baked milk to differentiate from other milk allergy codes.
• Verify this is a subsequent encounter; initial encounters would use the "A" seventh character.
• Look for documentation of symptoms such as hives, eczema, vomiting, or diarrhea occurring after milk/dairy ingestion, but not anaphylaxis.
