This 74-year old female patient presents to the office today. She says that over the last month she is experiencing chest pain when she is taking deep breaths. Today she says that the chest pain is more frequent than it has been. I am sending the patient to the hospital for a chest x-ray and a complete blood work up. What ICD-10-CM code should you assign to this case?

The ICD-10-CM code for chest x-ray is R(07.9) and the code for complete blood work is ICD-10-CM R68.89
