Hey there!

So a few days ago I was seen by a psychologist for a mental health evaluation after a referral from my PCP. After the session was complete I was booked with an appointment to see a psychiatrist within this behavioral health complex next week. Before leaving I asked if he knew what I had going on, and he said I seem to fit into the box for Bipolar I and sent me on my way telling me to make sure to return for my next appointment with the psychiatrist. So I spent some time researching this diagnosis just to learn more. Now today I signed in to check my insurance and the claim has been submitted. I noticed that under Diagnoses for Service, it had F31.9. So being interested I looked up this billing code and it shows bipolar disorder, unspecified. Now I'm very confused, as I'm unsure what I really have. Has this ever happened to anyone? Can there be a difference in billing diagnosis versus personal diagnosis? Or is this just a general code to use until I see the psychiatrist? It just bothers me when things don't match up. Thank you for any guidance in this situation.
