Cause and contributing cause of death

We had a question about the contributory cause of death. According to the Mil Info, the cause of death was "Asthma caused by disease heart" with nothing listed in the contributing cause.

Here is the question.

Should "asthma" be input on the Death screen as the cause of death and "disease heart" be input as the contributory cause?

The short answer is no. You should enter it just as it was in the Mil Info. Don't put anything under contributing cause unless it specifically says "contributing cause" or it's listed next to "contributory" on the death cert.
