Assignment Requirements

• Identify and briefly describe each of the standard code sets for diagnoses, laboratory tests, procedures, medications and clinical reasoning including the purpose of the codeset, the range of items listed in the codeset, the number of codes in the codeset, and how the codeset is related to the data from our book “Administrative Healthcare Data,” including the FacilityHeader, FacilityDetail, ProfessionalHeader, ProfessionalDetail, Pharmacy, and any other relevant tables. This is a research and reporting task. You are to identify the relevant codesets, (hint: this information is summarized in chapter 10), then do aIDitional research using the internet to provide your definition of each codeset. (about 1 paragraph per codeset)

(5 points)

a.) Diagnoses

b.) Laboratory tests

c.) Medical procedures

d.) Medications

e.) Clinical reasoning

This is a website that you should review that is related to one of the codesets: http://loinc.org/. You should find and review websites for the other codesets.
