Seq#6025 (Blood Urea Nitrogen (PreProcedure))

Video Transcription

Sequence 6025, pre-procedure blood urea nitrogen, or BUN, is capturing the last or most recent lab or point of care value between 30 days prior to the start of the procedure.  This element is captured as a whole number. However, if you have a value that reports to a decimal, then please truncate or simply drop the decimal values.  As an example, if the level is reported as 13.32 mg per deciliter, then code 13 and drop the .32.  Lastly, if a blood urea nitrogen level was not drawn to meet the target value, then you would select sequence 6026, blood urea nitrogen not drawn.
