General coding standards
Acute and chronic conditions
When both an acute and a chronic form of the same condition are documented and separate codes exist, both are assigned.
Was das in der Praxis bedeutet
- Sequence the acute form first when it is the reason for the encounter.
- Where the classification provides a single combination code covering both, use it instead of two codes.
- Acute kidney injury superimposed on chronic kidney disease is the canonical example - both are coded.
