Inclusion Criteria

[Horne, Linda]

Greetings All,

 

I would like to know if and how many of you use codes beyond 800-959.9 in the inclusion criteria in your state? 

 

Thanks

North Dakota also includes 991.0-3 (frostbite).

Also, if a trauma code/alert is called, that patient automatically goes into the registry despite ICD9 codes.

Further information can be found at http://www.ndhealth.gov/trauma/resource/default.asp?ID=341

Idaho also includes 994.1, 994.7 and 994.8 – but we don’t include all  ICD-9s in the 800-959.9 range.

[Horne, Linda]

Thanks for the replies.  One more question.  Have anyone started to implement guidelines for the ICD-10 that will be coming within the next year or so?  How will this impact your registry?

[Ginger Franks]

Not yet for Idaho.

[Ashley Robertson Newmyer]

Nebraska hasn't started yet either.

[Bowlus, Ambrosia D (HSS)]

Either has Alaska,

Although our software company – said they would start doing all the necessary preparations in the background, so our system would be ready at the necessary time.

Thanks

[Horne, Linda]

Thanks for the responses, we wanted to make sure that we are not behind on anything.

What software company is everyone using?  We are using Image Trend in Idaho.

[Horne, Linda]

The software for MS is DI Corp, in which I learned is already on task for the ICD-10. I was glad to hear it.

Would state registrars be willing to send me their official job title or classification from your respective states?

 

Have a great day!
