See also Renal Coding Considerations

This article needs cleaning up as regards suggestion for NEW/changed renal coding rules -- to be discussed by Julie, Trish, Tina, Allan.

ALSO, once that's done, need to correctly link THIS new renal coding article (instead of the old one) to the new acute and chronic renal failure articles.

General Considerations


Miscellaneous Notes


There are a few restrictions about which renal diagnoses can be coded together. These checks are currently done partly by Pagasa (!_Automated_Data_Integrity_Checks#CRF_vs_ARF) and have been partly implemented in CCMDB.mdb.

Acute or Chronic Renal problems in patient with Renal Transplant Failure

Just a comment about CRF - Chronic Renal Failure: when pt has Renal Transplant Problems and/or Renal Transplant - Removal of Transplant-Organ and requires dialysis, they can have acquired diagnoses of ARF (Diagnosis), Acute Tubular Necrosis (ATN) and/or ARI, which is related to their new donor kidney.

Template:Data Integrity Checks

These rules are currently checked at the main office and result in calls for clarification from Pagasa if broken. Some of them have been added to CCMDB.mdb, more are to follow.



Allan/Tina still need to check on these things:

Diagnoses, Comos vs. Tasks, locations

Apache vs. CRF comorbid

Apache vs. ARF Dx

cross-checks impossible due to different definitions, see ARF (Diagnosis) and ARF (APACHE)

Template:Data Integrity Checks that can not be checked before sending
