# Clarify definition [[Palliative Care]] - need criteria to follow

# Acute coronary ~~Insufficiency~~ and Unstable angina-description in code book should be reversed

# [[Acute coronary insufficiency]] and [[Unstable angina]] (151, 152) - description in code book should be reversed

# There currently is no codes for: hematuria- we have lots of people who are getting CBI for hematuria NYD

# Regarding the KATZ ADL assessment for feeding; when a person arrives to the unit within the first 24 hours NPO either for a test or for GI Bleed does this qualify as Dependant? The KATZ says 'Dependant is assistance to eat; does not eat (I interpret this to include NPO); must be fed; fed partly or completely by NG or IV.

#* either add to [[:Category:Diagnoses we are not coding]] or make [[Hematuria NYD]]

# Regarding the KATZ ADL Continence for assessment; does the use of a foley from home or within the first 24 hours qualify as Dependant. The KATZ states "Dependant as assistance; incontinent or cathether used (as with the use of a foley).
