===Coding Nosocomial infection with an infection with an implied pathogen=== | |||
* If you have a patient that has a nosocomial infection and that nosocomial infection is an infection with an implied pathogen, code both as separate [[Acquired Diagnosis]] with separate priorities. for eg. (1) Influenza pneumonia (which has an implied organism) and (2) Nosocomial infection, NOS with the organism being Influenza virus NOS -- should almost never be used. | |||
