* Should we be coding cardiac arrest as a comorb if they have a past history of cardiac arrest? Or is it considered resolved? Some of us are coding it as a comorb and some of us aren't.

** I think [[Comorbid_Diagnosis#When_not_to_code_a_dx_at_all]] answers this, but you say some people code it differently. Could someone who codes this as a comorbid explain why they code it? I want to flag this for my meeting with Allan to address collector questions, and I think we will need to know what the reasoning is.

***I have included this code for a patient with a fairly recent arrest and also to highlight the extent of their CAD and comorbs. I would also likely include it if the admitting diagnosis is cardiac related. | |||
