There are some [[ICD10 Diagnoses and CCI Codes that need to be coded together]].

== Introduction to CCI Procedure Coding ==

*CCI stands for ''Canadian Classification of Interventions''. It is the standard schema used in all of Canada to code all types of medical procedures.

*We decided to code procedures as a subset of [[CCI]]. By ''subset" we are referring to the fact that there are over 18,000 procedures in all of CCI; we will only be keeping track of a fairly small fraction of these.

**See [[Reasoning around moving to CCI and our subset of it]] for reasons.

*We will collect procedure in two separate "bins": '''admit''' and '''acquired'''; see [[Px Type]] form more info.

**Acquired procedures are those done AFTER admission to the ICU/ward.

**Admit procedures are those done '''BEFORE''' admission and are relation to admission.

**For example, with admission after a surgery, the surgery is an admit procedure.

**NOTE: If a person is admitted and the plan is to take them to the unit first, and soon thereafter do the procedure, you should code this as '''acquired''', not '''admit'''.

*For all interventions we are keeping track of:

**[[Px_Date]] - Date of procedure

**[[Px_Count]] - the number of '''separate''' times it was done''' '''''on a given day

*When you have a procedure to code in CCI, the first thing that needs to be done is to decide the intervention category:

**[[#Therapeutic Procedures]]

**[[#Non-imaging Diagnostic Procedures]]

**[[#Diagnostic Imaging Procedures]]

**[[#Obstetrical Procedures]] -- these comprise a small picklist of therapeutic and diagnostic procedures directly related to the pregnant mother. Other procedures done on a woman who happens to be pregnant (i.e. are not directly related to pregnancy and childbirth) would go under one of the other CCI categories listed on this page.

**[[#Miscellaneous]] - Immunotherapy procedures -- the only item on this list is intravenous administration of immunoglobulin (ivIg)

*It's usually easy to figure out which category to use, but sometimes an intervention can be both therapeutic and diagnostic (e.g. thoracentesis). '''A rule is that when you have a procedure that has both therapeutic and diagnostic aspects, ONLY code the therapeutic part'''. For example, for a diagnostic cardiac catheterization where at the same sitting a stent is placed, only code the stent placement.
