We track the scope however, we '''do not track if a biopsy was taken during the scope''' in the old coding system. Please do not code [[Other Procedures (pulm/thoracic)]] or [[Open_Lung_Biopsy]] along with the Bronchoscopy. We are not tracking if a biopsy was taken during a bronchscopy.  If anyone wants to know down to that level of detail, then we advise them they will have to audit bronch cases to drill down further on their own.[[User:TOstryzniuk|Trish Ostryzniuk]] 18:08, 2014 April 23 (CDT)
