==== Code only if done by Radiology or Cardiology ====
*Code diagnostic imaging procedures '''only if performed by Radiology or Cardiology''' for which '''there is an order'''. 
** Examples: a bedside echo done by a cardiology tech should be coded, but a bedside echo done by the ICU fellow should not be coded.  An echo done informally by the cardiology team (i.e. informal in that no actual order was put in for it) should not be coded.
 
==== Multiple Views at one sitting ====
If a [[Abdominal plain X-ray (AXR)]] or [[CXR plain film]] comprises multiple views/films done at one sitting, only count it as ONE. 
*e.g. if radiology does 3 views of the abdomen, this counts as 1, not 3.

Guideline about Coding CCI vs ICD10 imaging codes

  • There are a set of "imaging codes" in ICD10, but these are not to code that an imaging test was performed, but to code that a result was abnormal --- and like all the ICD10 codes for abnormal symptoms or signs or test results, they are mainly to be used when the actual diagnosis CAUSING the abnormal findings is not known.

ICD10 Imaging diagnoses and other diagnoses that require imaging should be coded together with corresponding Imaging Pxs, where we have a code for them. Coding both is not redundant because the ICD10 will only be coded for abnormal results, and we don't have CCI coding options for every kind of imaging. Coding both as appropriate will cover all the ways we are interested in this data.
