Please done forget to code if patient is [[Quadrapelgia]] as result of the above injury.  Data audit:  I see a number of profiles codes with C_Spine with cord injury, yet Quadraplegia does not show up in coding until the patient is had been transferred to second or third unit.  Will ask Tina if she thinks a check in ccmdb.mdb would help, so staff don't miss this.   
Please done forget to code if patient is [[Post Traumatic Quadriplegia]] as result of the above injury.  Data audit:  I see a fair number of profiles codes with C_Spine with cord injury, yet quadraplegia does not show up in coding until the patient had been transferred to second or third unit.  Will ask Tina if she thinks a check in ccmdb.mdb would help, so staff don't miss this.  [[User:TOstryzniuk|Trish Ostryzniuk]] 18:20, 2014 April 23 (CDT)
