  • Lisa updated the includes for this to add "necrotizing cavitary pneumonias". So, I added the "Pneumonia" category. I think this is something Julie occasionally reports on, so I want to make sure that coding this pneumonia in a more generic waste basket will not cause problems for her reporting. Emailed Julie and Lisa with link to this.
    • Thanks. The investigator who had CAP request included this code too so I have added this code under pneumonia in my filtering. --JMojica 10:26, 2021 October 21 (CDT)
      • Do you not use the s_ICD10_Categories table for this kind of filtering? I thought we implemented that so we can be consistent with these things over time. Ttenbergen 10:59, 2021 October 21 (CDT)
