*I think this code should be removed.  Coding [[Tracheostomy, has one]], would be sufficient and this would imply that Tracheostomy care is done.  Main office doing checks on data and we can see that there is no consistency and both are not always coded.

*AG REPLY:  An excellent point.  I agree that we should delete it. The only thing we lose is the ability to identify if trach care is the reason for admission -- which happens very rarely.  Regarding the related question below, unless somebody is specifically asking for info on trach changes, I don't think it's a big issue to code those at all. }}
