**there seems to be confusion all around when to code something as an admit vs acquired vs comorbid. One example we have seen, someone comes in to ICU with stab would injury to heart, has had cardiac arrests, and is in shock. We see the trauma injury to heart coded as comordid. Need to discuss collection instruction tweek that would help
