{{DA |*I have the Spinal Compression code giving me an error that it needs a trauma mechanism. My patient has spinal cord compression from an ([[Intraspinal abscess]], epidural abscess), so there is no trauma involved. I think someone else has asked you about it before. On the wiki that code is in the trauma category, but I don’t want to move it out of there because sometimes it is due to trauma and I don’t want to cause other problems. Can you please look into this, because I can’t send the file. Joanna Velasco May 27.19

** This is being discussed at [[Query check ICD10 mechanism vs trauma]]. There are other diagnoses with a similar situation. I would like Allan to weigh in on how we best solve this.
