*Pt's who go for procedures like IVC filter, cystoscopy, radiologist guided pigtail insertion,CT guided drainage of abscess, do they get points for operative procedure on the TISS? I know angioplasty does. There are some things we mark on our PDA that fall under OR but do they all count as OR on the TISS. --MWaschuk 20:14, 29 September 2008 (CDT) | *Pt's who go for procedures like IVC filter, cystoscopy, radiologist guided pigtail insertion,CT guided drainage of abscess, do they get points for operative procedure on the TISS?

**The PDA only allowed a limited number of grouping for the diagnostic codes. There are a number of "diagnostic" procedure scattered amongst the surgical codes. A diagnostic procedure is not a surgery, therefore TISS item 96 should not be marked. | **The PDA only allowed a limited number of grouping for the diagnostic codes.
