'''High Dose Chemotherapy-as primary admit''' should be coded only if it is the '''[[Primary Admit Diagnosis]]'''.

It should '''not''' be coded for patients who simply happen to receive chemo during their stay.

{{DiscussAllan | This page is listed as an exception in [[Definition of a Medicine Service admission]] so I wanted to make sure we include that instruction with the new codes. However, what _is_ the new code for this? Found nothing suitable in [[CCI Picklist]], [[CCI component 2 codes - what was done]], and [[ICD10 Diagnosis List]] only has [[Antineoplastic drug (chemotherapy) used appropriately, adverse effect (reaction, allergy, hypersensitivity)]] which doesn't seem a real match either. In general we would only code the cancer now, right, but this is a bit of a special case, so do we want to treat it separately?}}
