Non-standard ICD10 Diagnoses: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

The following non-standard ICD10 Diagnoses we customized/added have been added to encode specific diagnostic details that ICD10 doesn't account for.

== Our choice of codes ==

As per [https://www.cihi.ca/en/icd_10_ca_vol1_2009_en.pdf]:

<~~block~~>

U00-U49 - Provisional codes for temp orary assignment by World Health Organization of new diseases of uncertain etiology

U50-U99 - Provisional codes for research and temporary assignment in Canada

</~~block~~>

~~== Our choice of~~ codes ==

We are going to stick out extra codes into the WHO range, anticipating that it is more likely that we would want to adopt all-Canada temp codes than WHO temp codes.

~~{{discussion}} should~~ we ~~not be using the U50~~-99 codes ~~for our made-up ones? Ttenbergen 20:53, 2018 March 14 (CDT)~~

== Effect on other systems that use ranges of codes in definitions ==

{{Discussion}} Apache, Charlson and ~~ICDq10~~ blocks rely on ranges of codes. With our addition of codes, collectors may use one of our codes rather than the closest standard ICD10 code. In that case, the dx would not show up. How should we address this?
