| | | | | |now. However, we now have 4 inactive | | | | |

| | | | | |codes, so I request that the committee | | | | |

| | | | | |consider changing the "I" to "N" to avoid | | | | |

| | | | | |confusion and to make it consistent with | | | | |

| | | | | |appears to have been re-typed with errors | | | | |

| | | | | | | |statement in Chapter 2 needs to be | | |

| |Richard |12.3.1.18 |A |S | | |I would like Goal Lifecycle status | | |

| | | | | | | |explanation of the values. | | |

| | | | | | | |I have trouble with the example | | |

| | | | | | | |values because “cancelled” and | | |

| | | | | | | |“suspended” seem to be subclasses | | |

| | | | | | | |of “Inactive” and I would like to | | |

| | | | | | | |see a value of “achieved”. | | |

| | | | | | | |Consider similar lifecycles for | | |

| | | | | | | |pathway lifecycle status 12.3.4.5 | | |

| | | | | | | |and problem lifecycle status | | |

| | | | | | | |12.3.2.14. | | |

| |Richard |12.3.2.14 |A |S | | |Try to use the same nomenclature | | |

| |Harding | | | | | |here as for Goal lifecycle status, | | |

| | | | | | | |but the valid values will differ eg| | |

| | | | | | | |problem lifecycle is stable, | | |

| | | | | | | |improving, worsening, inactive or | | |

| | | | | | | |resolved. Note the removal of the | | |

| | | | | | | |redundant “active” statuses. | | |

| |Richard |12.3.5 |A |S | | |Need to provide some additional | | |

| |Harding | | | | | |text describing specific examples | | |

| | | | | | | |of variations. | | |

| |Richard |12.3.5 |A |Q | | |Should there be an additional field| | |

| | | | | | | |when a Dr changes a pathway? Any | | |

| | | | | | | |peer review would wish to | | |

| | | | | | | |understand the Dr’s reasons for | | |

| | | | | | | |practice. | | |

| |Richard |12.3.5 |A |Q | | |Original problem is “diarrhoea”. | |9 |

| | | | | | | |poisoning”. Is this | | |

| | | | | | | |a new problem | | |

| | | | | | | |a variation to the original problem| | |

| | | | | | | |a replacement for the original | | |

| | | | | | | |problem with the original problem | | |

| | | | | | | |held as a historic variation? | | |

| |Clem McDonald |4.4.3.46 | | | | |The idea of having supplemental | | |

| | | | | | | |ordering information is | | |

| | | | | | | |understandable. Different systems | | |

| | | | | | | |have different styles for | | |

| | | | | | | |structuring their order codes. For | | |

| | | | | | | |example, a system may have a code | | |

| | | | | | | |for femur xray and allow the | | |

| | | | | | | |specification of the right and left| | |

| | | | | | | |side by an additional code. | | |

| | | | | | | |However, the particulars in this | | |

| | | | | | | |table are such a mis-mash that this| | |

| | | | | | | |proposal will reduce the | | |

| | | | | | | |inter-operability of different | | |

| | | | | | | |systems and the suggestions for | | |

| | | | | | | |alternative code systems are worse.| | |

| | | | | | | |(E.g., there is no micro-glossary | | |

| | | | | | | |in SNOMED for radiology, and I | | |

| | | | | | | |understand no work has been done. | | |

| | | | | | | |Further, when it is produced it may| | |

| | | | | | | |really define order codes not | | |

| | | | | | | |modifier codes.) | | |

| | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | |Specific criticisms of table 0411. | | |

| | | | | | | |I have many problems with this | | |

| | | | | | | |table as it is proposed. First, it | | |

| | | | | | | |is focused solely on the needs of | | |

| | | | | | | |radiology reporting, but is being | | |

| | | | | | | |proposed as a table for all of | | |

| | | | | | | |ordering. Secondly, its genesis is | | |

| | | | | | | |partly from the HCFA coding | | |

| | | | | | | |modifiers. HCFA has added required | | |

| | | | | | | |modifies for Right and Left, but it| | |

| | | | | | | |also has modifiers to identify the | | |

| | | | | | | |individual fingers and toes. HCFA | | |

| | | | | | | |uses 20 distinct modifiers (one for| | |

| | | | | | | |each finger and toe) not the five | | |

| | | | | | | |modifiers listed here. The table | | |

| | | | | | | |includes some of the variants for | | |

| | | | | | | |specifying position with respect to| | |

| | | | | | | |gravity (E.g., upright) but not the| | |

| | | | | | | |others - prone, supine, etc. It | | |

| | | | | | | |includes a modifier for Pediatric | | |

| | | | | | | |(a common part of the name of | | |

| | | | | | | |radiology tests for billing | | |

| | | | | | | |purposes because often more of the | | |

| | | | | | | |body can be obtained with less | | |

| | | | | | | |film), but the birth date defines | | |

| | | | | | | |“pediatric”. Furthermore, we have | | |

| | | | | | | |just completed a review of more | | |

| | | | | | | |than 13 hospitals reporting and | | |

| | | | | | | |billing codes for radiology and | | |

| | | | | | | |most of them have pre-coordinated | | |

| | | | | | | |the distinctions being described in| | |

| | | | | | | |the above. | | |

| | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | |Thirdly, these would be an | | |

| | | | | | | |invitation for contradictory orders| | |

| | | | | | | |without additional structure to | | |

| | | | | | | |define what modifiers are allowed | | |

| | | | | | | |with what tests. | | |

| | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | |Fourthly, this does have some | | |

| | | | | | | |relationship to the procedure code | | |

| | | | | | | |modifier listed in section | | |

| | | | | | | |4.4.3.45. The procedure modifier | | |

| | | | | | | |came from HCFA but don’t know if | | |

| | | | | | | |they are the CPT 2000 modifier | | |

| | | | | | | |codes because can’t see the table. | | |

| | | | | | | |This has an obvious overlap with | | |

| | | | | | | |the listed purpose of this field, | | |

| | | | | | | |indeed it includes some of the same| | |

| | | | | | | |values, but I believe is intended | | |

| | | | | | | |only for billing purposes as is the| | |

| | | | | | | |procedure code | | |

| | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | |So, I would accept leaving the | | |

| | | | | | | |fields in – to serve as escape | | |

| | | | | | | |valves for needs that arise. But | | |

| | | | | | | |think we should remove the specific| | |

| | | | | | | |suggested table because it is too | | |

| | | | | | | |irregular and too specialized and | | |

| | | | | | | |it invites criticism and mis-use. | | |

| | | | | | | |In the body of the text we could | | |

| | | | | | | |mention some of the possible uses | | |

| | | | | | | |that are listed in the table, | | |

| | | | | | | |should mention the HCFA modifier | | |

| | | | | | | |codes in the body of the text, and | | |

| | | | | | | |should remove reference to anything| | |

| | | | | | | |that does not yet exist. | | |

| | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | |I would suggest the following | | |

| | | | | | | |revisions. | | |

| | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | |Making this a user defined CE | | |

| | | | | | | |coding sytem. | | |

| | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | |Replace the last sentence in | | |

| | | | | | | |4.4.3.46 with the following: | | |

| | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | |“On the ordering side, this field | | |

| | | | | | | |can be used to describe details | | |

| | | | | | | |such as whether study is to be done| | |

| | | | | | | |on the right or left, for example | | |

| | | | | | | |where the study is of the arm and | | |

| | | | | | | |the order master file does not | | |

| | | | | | | |distinguish right from left or | | |

| | | | | | | |whether the study is to be done | | |

| | | | | | | |with or without contrast (when the | | |

| | | | | | | |order master file does not make | | |

| | | | | | | |such distinctions). The HCFA CPT | | |

| | | | | | | |modifiers could also be used as | | |

| | | | | | | |codes in this field.” | | |

| | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | |3) Add a code for CPT modifier in | | |

| | | | | | | |Table 0396 of Chapter 7 just below | | |

| | | | | | | |CPT4 as follows: | | |

| |Clem McDonald |4.4.1.5 |N | | | |Order Status Modifier - We | | |

| | | | | | | |currently have real problems with | | |

| | | | | | | |the receipt of ORU messages that | | |

| | | | | | | |fail to use the order status as it | | |

| | | | | | | |is currently defined (e.g., they do| | |

| | | | | | | |not report corrections which | | |

| | | | | | | |require special processing at the | | |

| | | | | | | |medical record receiving end). | | |

| | | | | | | |Including an order status modifier | | |

| | | | | | | |that is user defined would only | | |

| | | | | | | |exaggerate this problem and create | | |

| | | | | | | |new inter-operability problems. | | |

| | | | | | | |collision with the current | | |
