*Note: This is ONLY procedures that are CAUSAL, not just used to make the diagnosis. For example, a CXR would not cause a pneumonia so it would not be included here. If a scope was done in the previous 24 hours and a perforation occurs from this procedure, then you would include the scope if the pt came to the ICU with a perforation.--[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 13:10, 2018 August 28 (CDT)

{{Discuss | who = Allan | question = One might think of a diagnostic procedure as "causing" an admission by helping confirm a diagnosis, i.e. the px doesn't cause the patient to need admission, but it causes the physician to know the patient needs admission. Should those be coded as admit px then? Ttenbergen 19:47, 2018 August 6 (CDT)}}
