 **[[Px_Date]] - Date of procedure
 **[[Px_Count]] - the number of '''separate''' times it was done on a '''given day'''
-*The categories (corresponding to [[CCI]] chapter numbers chapters) are:
-**1. [[Therapeutic Procedure]]
-**2. [[Diagnostic Procedure]]
-**3. [[Imaging Procedure]]
-**5. [[Obstetric Procedure]]
-**8. [[Miscellaneous Procedure]] - currently only [[Administration of intravenous immunoglobulin]]
-**It's usually easy to figure out which category to use, but sometimes an intervention can be both therapeutic and diagnostic
-**Rule:  when you have a procedure that has '''both''' therapeutic and ''diagnostic'' aspects, '''ONLY code the therapeutic part'''.
-***Example: diagnostic cardiac catheterization at same sitting as stent placemen -- here only code [[Coronary angioplasty with stenting]], but don't code [[Coronary angiogram (diagnostic cardiac catherization)]].
