Definitive value set for Disability assessment.

[Lora Woltz]

Hello,

I am trying to get a definitive answer on the coding for disability assessment.  The CUBs assessment does not serve our client base appropriately.  I am wondering if this set of LOINC will be acceptable:

69856-3
Are you deaf, or do you have serious difficulty hearing
69857-1
Are you blind, or do you have serious difficulty seeing, even when wearing glasses
69858-9
Because of a physical, mental, or emotional condition, do you have serious difficulty concentrating, remembering, or making decisions
69859-7
Do you have serious difficulty walking or climbing stairs
69860-5
Do you have difficulty dressing or bathing
69861-3
Because of a physical, mental, or emotional condition, do you have difficulty doing errands alone such as visiting a physician's office or shopping

Are we to denote the introduction of the disability assessment with code:  101720-1

Thank you!
