#1. The patient is admitted to the emergency room with chest pain. The emergency room physician monitors the patient and documents “rule out gastritis” on the record. He consults a cardiologist who admits the patient to an inpatient bed for evaluation. The cardiologist diagnoses unstable angina, and discharges the patient to be followed up in two weeks. What is the principal diagnosis code?
411.1 Intermediate coronary syndrome is correct
