The priority of an ICD10 diagnosis
The Dx_Priority is coded as part of the ICD10 collection.
The priority is used to partner ICD10 diagnoses together. See combined ICD10 codes.
- Your terminology for "lowest priority" number is confusing to our assessment process/lingo and concept...perhaps stating "most relevant admit diagnosis" and begin with "#1" may be clearer.--Llemoine 07:41, 2018 May 11 (CDT)
