* 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. --[[User:JMojica|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. [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 10:59, 2021 October 21 (CDT)
