Seq#6050 (Creatinine (PreProcedure)

Video Transcription

Sequence 6050, pre-procedure creatinine, is capturing the last or most recent lab or point of care creatinine value between 30 days prior to the start of the current procedure.  This element can be captured up to the hundredth place, or two places after the decimal.  However, if you have a creatinine that reports to the thousandth place, or three places after the decimal, then please truncate or simply drop that value.  As an example, if the level is reported as 1.328 mg per deciliter, then code 1.32 mg per deciliter, dropping that 8.  Lastly, if a creatinine level was not drawn to meet the target value, then you would select sequence 6051, creatinine not drawn.
