Diagnosis Code Group Setup


Diagnosis Code Group setup is the screen where a practice can allow a user to group diagnosis codes for additional processing. For example, cancer diagnoses can be entered into a Diagnosis Code Group and then filtered within the Summary of Care Schedule Add/Edit screen to be exported manually so that patients with an active problem list containing a code in the group will be exported. 

Workflow

  1. Open the Setup portal and then select Diagnosis Code Groups under Billing Setup
  2. Click the Diagnosis Code Group drop-down to view/edit any previously created groups
  3. To create a new Diagnosis Code Group, click the + icon
  4. Enter your new Group Name and click OK
  5. Use the search field (top right) to find your codes, and select all the codes to include in the group by checking the box to the left of the codes 
  6. Click Assign 
  7. This will add the checked codes to your Diagnosis Code Group
  8. Optional: To remove a code from the Diagnosis Code Group, simply check the box to the left of the code and click Delete

The Problem List Diagnosis Group allows users to filter by a Procedure Diagnosis Code Group, allowing all active patients with an active problem list containing a code in the group to be exported.
