This code should be used if a [[COVID-19 (SARS-COV-2)]] has resolved without sequelae. If there are sequelae, code as [[Post COVID-19 condition]] instead.

Past history of [[COVID-19 (SARS-COV-2)]]  is coded in the comorbid only.  
Past history of [[COVID-19 (SARS-COV-2)]]  is coded in the comorbid only. Therefore, if a patient has acquired COVID during this hospitalization, but this infection has completely resolved prior to coming to a unit that we collect on, then we would not code this during the current admission.
 
* as per TASK February 27, 2025, Dr Paunovic no longer needs this collected

* If we have a patient that has been hospitalized for a longer period of time, and acquires COVID while in hospital, but by the time they are transferred to your ward is considered recovered, with no long term effects, how should we be coding this? For example a patient had covid Dec.1 on a surgical ward that we don't collect on. They come up to ICU Dec.22 for another issue, and are considered COVID recovered. In this case, the only way I see to code this is as a Comorb past history of Covid-19, even though this occurred during their current stay.
** This would be relevant to any [[Comorbid Diagnosis]], so if we change anything it should be documented there. [[Comorbid Diagnosis]] mentions "Dx is in the past and is resolved and is included in one of the: Category: Past medical history codes" as a reason to code as comorbid - there is no mention of which admission in this part of the definition. Would that answer your question, though? [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 09:32, 2023 February 23 (CST)
***Perhaps the covid infection in the scenario/context above would not be coded at all, similar to a prior uti or other pneumonia/infection that is completely resolved prior to arrival to the collection unit. Following patient discharge from hospital, the covid infection will become a comorb code. [[User:Ppiche|Pamela Piche]] 09:49, 2023 February 23 (CST)
*Agree with Pam and will move to the Co-morbid section [[User:Lkaita|Lisa Kaita]] 11:53, 2023 February 28 (CST)
