CV ASC Registry Education-Seq#15511 (Procedure History Occurrence)

Video Transcription

Each cardiovascular ASC procedure pathway is assigned unique and specific procedure history data elements.  The entire team, including ambulatory surgery center and office-based lab stakeholders, thoughtfully and concisely appointed these procedures to their respective pathway based  on reporting needs and keeping in mind the need for lean datasets. So while the data dictionary lists all applicable procedures that could be used within the entire  registry, constraints are applied in the back end to allow certain procedures to appear in the specific pathway when using the data collection tool.  Thus, the easiest means to know which procedures are captured for a specific pathway is taking a look at the data collection form.  To code yes in Sequence 15511, Procedure History Occurrence, there must be documentation the patient has undergone the indicated medical procedure.

Video Summary

The cardiovascular ASC procedure pathways have unique procedure history data elements assigned thoughtfully by the entire team to meet reporting needs and maintain lean datasets. While the data dictionary includes all possible procedures, constraints are applied to show only relevant procedures in each pathway on the data collection tool. To indicate a procedure's occurrence in a specific pathway, one must check the data collection form and ensure documented evidence of the patient undergoing the medical procedure before coding "yes" in Sequence 15511 for Procedure History Occurrence.
