Does Clinical Evidence Support ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Coding of Complications
BACKGROUND: Hospital discharge diagnoses, coded by use of the International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM), increasingly determine reimbursement and support quality monitoring. Prior studies of coding validity have investigated whether coding guidelines were met, not whether the clinical condition was actually present. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether clinical evidence in medical records confirms selecte…
Use of Administrative Data to Find Substandard Care: Validation of the Complications Screening Program
OBJECTIVE: The use of administrative data to identify inpatient complications is technically feasible and inexpensive but unproven as a quality measure. Our objective was to validate whether a screening method that uses data from standard hospital discharge abstracts identifies complications of care and potential quality problems. DESIGN: This was a case-control study with structured implicit physician reviews. SETTING: Acute-care hospitals in Ca…
Screening Inpatient Quality Using Post-Discharge Events
BACKGROUND: Decreasing hospital lengths of stay (LOS) hamper efforts to detect and to definitively treat complications of care. Patients leave before some complications are identified. OBJECTIVES: To develop a computerized method to screen for hospital complications using readily available administrative data from outpatient and nonacute care within 90 days of discharge. DESIGN: We developed the Complications Screening Program for Outpatient data…
