CV ASC Registry Education-Seq#5005 (Electrophysiology Study Date)

Video Transcription

If it has been noted the patient had a prior  electrophysiology study, then sequence 5005 is capturing the most recent date one was performed. If the month or day of the  electrophysiology study is unknown, please code 0101 and insert that known year.  If the specific year is unknown in the current record, the year may be estimated based on timeframes found in prior documentation.  So, for example, if the patient had most recent EP study documented in a record from 2011, the year 2011 would be utilized and  0101 2011 would be coded. However, if the most recent date when the electrophysiology study was performed is unknown, then sequence 5010,  electrophysiology study date unknown, would be selected instead.

Video Summary

The transcript discusses coding procedures for capturing the most recent date of a patient's prior electrophysiology study. If the month or day is unknown, code 0101 with the known year. If the year is also unknown, estimate it from previous documentation. For instance, if the latest EP study record is from 2011, code 0101 2011. However, if the most recent date of the study is unknown, use sequence 5010 instead.
