Major Diagnostic Code Definitions Ill Defined category Other Health Status and Services The Major Diagnostic categories are aligned with the major sections of the ICD9-CM. In general, categories 780-796 include the more ill-defined conditions and symptoms that point with perhaps equal suspicion to two or more diseases or to two or more systems of the body, and without the necessary study of the case to make a final diagnosis. Practically all categories in this group could be designated as "not otherwise specified," or as "unknown etiology," or as "transient." Examples: Fever, Convulsions, Chest Pain, Abdominal Pain. The Major Diagnostic categories are aligned with the major sections of the ICD9-CM. The Other category consists of claims with diagnoses that don t map to the ICD9-CM, mostly Rx and Dental claims. Excluding those benefits from the Benefit checkbox list will usually reduce Other to a negligible amount. Also known as "V-Codes" (i.e., V70.0) Usually used as a secondary diagnosis, but sometimes appears in the primary. Full details available in the ICD9 diagnosis book. General Medical Examination is common 1. Non-sick persons encountering the system (donors, family doc counseling, vaccines, etc) 2. Sick person encountering the system for treatment of a known (ongoing) disease or injury. 3. When a circumstance or problem is present that influences the patient's health, but isn't itself an illness (personal or family history health hazards, circumstances related to reproduction and development, etc) Injury & Poisoning Injury & Poisoning External Causes Factures, Wounds, Burns, Poisoning by Drugs, Medicinal and Biological Substances (DX Code 800-999) Factures, Wounds, Burns, Poisoning by Drugs, Medicinal and Biological Substances (DX Code E800 - E999) Transport accidents (E800-E848) include accidents involving: aircraft and space craft (E840-E845) watercraft (E830-E838) motor vehicle (E810-E825) railway (E800-E807) other road vehicles (E826-E829) 14
