Coding transsexuality
We don't specifically encode transsexuality. We used to code Gender identity disorder but discontinued coding it.
We collect some ICD10 codes that for surgical interventions that might happen as part of transitioning. We would code these as any other history of surgery. Specifically:
- Past history, removal of organ NOS for hysterectomy if appropriate. We discussed whether removed testicles should be included in this; if so it needs to be added to that page as well
- Past history, removal of breast (mastectomy) if appropriate
I think we don't code hormone replacement therapy itself. If there are common side effects that manifest in a way that is ICD10 encodable, would we want to list them here? Ttenbergen 15:39, 2022 September 7 (CDT) |
