Sally Smith should query the provider of the patient's health record for clarification.

What is an ICD code?

An ICD code is an abbreviation for International Classification of Diseases and it can be defined as an official system used by medical practitioners to assign a unique set of numbers (codes) around the World and in the United States of America, for the classification of medical procedures and patient health records.

In this scenario, we can reasonably infer that Sally Smith should query the provider of the patient's health record for clarification on the different diagnoses.
