does the pt then have to have a Tracheostomy entry as well, at least as an admit?
- If the tracheostomy was inserted during the current pt admission to hospital, then it can be put in the admit code. If the tracheostomy is old and was inserted in a prior hospitalization then we don't usually put it in the admission codes. If the pt has a trach site infection however, this code would be entered as an admit code or complication as the case may be. Therefore, putting the procedure code of trach should not be essential in order to use the trach infection code. --LKolesar 10:39, 2015 May 13 (CDT)
If the following codes in Admit or Complication/Acquired DX slot:

a. 77400 & 93xx (xx mean subcode, 00 mean no subcode)

b. 774xx & 93xx

do we need to cross-check with Trach Task
- YES. If 774 (trach) or 93 (trach site infection) in admit or acquired
cross check with TISS28: T23, T47

This was coded as 77408 - Tracheostomy site infection until 2015-May-11.

New code added to s_alldiagnoses for CCMDB.mdb version 2015-May-4-6.

Conversion of old dxs in CFE is still outstanding. There is an SQL update query Pagasa is to run in CFE.
