Since we now have unlimited space to add all kinds of things that happen to patients, a question was asked if collector should code in DX if patient had multiple scopes or angios? | |||
*In labs test the number of times is counted but current practice is NOT to code it multiple times in DX slots. Repeatedly coding procedures or surgeries would then have to apply to all other potential DX codes we can do this with. This is data collection creep. If a patient went for 10 skin graft do collectors want to code that 10 times? Everyone would have to be consistent in all their repeated coding and it would take a year to have any useful information. This new info would also not be able to be compare to past data, so we need to be careful what we keep volunteering to collect. | |||
*can take to task meeting and revisit if this is what database program should be doing or not. | |||
