2 INTRODUCTION AND APPLICATION OF A CODING QUALITY TOOL PICQ JOE BERRY OPERATIONS AND PROJECT MANAGER, PAVILION HEALTH 2
3 Why is Coding Quality Important? Good Clinical Documentation Guide Good documentation supports quality patient care Present or future episodes of hospitalisation have access to the records they need The records are accurate, complete and understandable to ensure continuity of care This continuity supports high quality and safe patient care Quality clinical documentation also ensures the information is reliable for many other purposes Research Planning Quality improvement activities Quality documentation quantifies hospital activity Activity based funding (ABF) is focusing attention on the reliability and validity of coded health data 3
4 Making the Most of a Scarce Resource 2010 AIHW survey: National health reform and Activity Based Funding (ABF) implementation will increase demand for skilled HIMs and CCs Increased requirement for high quality data collection and reporting AIHW projections for the national workforce inflows over the next five years: Low end estimates, 300 new HIMs and 1,492 CCs required (total 1,792) High end estimates, total 3,101! HIMs in demand for non clinical coding work Clinical coding is one of several career options for HIMs CCs can take months to meet the level of independent coding required Your coding quality management system needs to support Coding resource performance management to make the most of a scare resource Coding resource education and training to shorten time to independence Clinician education and training to support quality source documentation 4
5 PICQ TM A Coding Quality Tool PICQ stands for Performance Indicators for Coding Quality PICQ is an auditing tool which identifies records in data sets that may be incorrectly coded PICQ measures coding accuracy by using a set of indicators PICQ is used for benchmarking across health services, hospitals and clinical coders PICQ is used for internal performance management to support: the continuous review of coding quality, and review of amended coded data quality 5
6 The PICQ TM Concept PICQ is designed to examine admitted patient morbidity data coded using the: International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Australian Modification (ICD-10-AM), and the Australian Classification of Health Interventions (ACHI) ICD-10-AM and ACHI are the national standard coding systems for admitted patient morbidity episodes in Australia and a number of other countries 6
7 What does a PICQ TM Indicator do? When an indicator examines a record, it analyses diagnosis and procedure codes: in combination with other codes in combination with National Health Data Dictionary (NHDD) data items in a sequence for their presence or absence for their specificity PICQ TM can be applied at any stage of data collection PAS extract Data warehouse extract PICQ TM indicators are expressed in a standard format allowing comparison of outcomes: over time between facilities between coders 7
8 What Input does PICQ TM Require? PICQ TM uses the following data fields extracted from a PAS or data warehouse: User episode ID Hospital ID Medical record number Date of admission Date of separation Date of birth Sex Principal diagnosis code Additional diagnosis codes Procedure (intervention) codes Care type Mode of separation DRG Days in ICU Intended length of stay Neonatal admission weight in grams Hours on mechanical ventilation Leave days Mental health legal status Coder User defined fields 8
9 When to Run PICQ TM PICQ can be used any time after the ICD-10-AM codes have been entered into a system Hospitals and health services run PICQ TM at desired intervals (daily, weekly, monthly ) for continuous review and amendment of coded data to provide feedback to individual coders to benchmark to identify education activities prior to sending data extracts to secondary collectors Secondary and tertiary data collectors run PICQ when: data has been received, and before data sets are finalised analysis can provide benchmark performance over time and between hospitals Researchers use PICQ analysis to measure data quality System support agencies can incorporate PICQ indicators into the clinical coding software systems to provide immediate feedback about potential errors 9
10 PICQ TM Indicator Degree There are four indicator degrees: F, Fatal Indicator any record found by such an indicator has been coded incorrectly by definition W1, Warning Indicator, 1% threshold records found by a warning indicator indicates that individual codes or combinations of codes or data items are likely to be incorrect W2, Warning Indicator, other records found by a warning indicator indicates that individual codes or combinations of codes or data items are likely to be incorrect (although the record is possibly correct) R, Relative Indicator records found by such an indicator are counted and expressed as a ratio of a larger (usually) group of episodes. These indicators would generally be used to assess the overall quality of coded data rather than identify individual problem records. 10
11 PICQ TM Indicator Type Each indicator is categorised according to the type of problem the indicator seeks to identify The indicator types are: 1. edit problem codes or code combinations that should have been prevented by basic editing, such as the use of edits incorporated in ICD-10-AM reference (or library) files 2. completeness problem codes are missing 3. redundancy problem unnecessary codes are present 4. specificity problem codes lack specificity or the incorrect code has been selected 5. sequencing problem codes are incorrectly sequenced 11
12 PICQ TM Reporting Numerator, Denominator and Ratio Data Set Numerator records are the cases the indicator is seeking to identify (problem records); these records are selected from the denominator records Denominator records are the cases in the data set under analysis in which the numerator records (problem records) could occur When the PICQ program processes indicators against a data set the results are expressed as a ratio of numerator to denominator Denominator Records Numerator Records 12
13 PICQ TM Indicator Examples Ind. Num Indicator Name Indicator Degree Indicator Type Rationale Denominator External cause code as principal diagnosis Fatal 1 Edit This indicator identifies records with an external cause code as principal diagnosis. ACS 2001 'External cause code use and sequencing' states that external cause codes must never be the principal diagnosis: the principal diagnosis is the injury, poisoning, etc. Total records containing an external cause code Admit for dialysis as only diagnosis code, without dialysis procedure code Fatal 2 Comp. "This indicator identifies records with 'admission for dialysis' as only diagnosis code but no dialysis procedure code. ACS 1404 'Admission for renal dialysis' states that the principal diagnosis for a patient admitted for a same day or over one night stay for renal dialysis should indicate the admission is for dialysis. If a patient were admitted for renal dialysis but did not undergo the procedure because of contra-indications, a code for 'procedure not carried out' should be assigned in addition or the episode cancelled, dependent on the admission policy of your State. Also run Indicators and to verify this principal diagnosis is correct for the length of stay." Total records with an admit for dialysis code as the only diagnosis code Impaired glucose regulation code with diabetes code Fatal 3 Redun. "This indicator identifies records containing both the impaired glucose regulation code and a diabetes code. The excludes notes at E09, E10, E11, E13 and E14 precludes the use of both codes in one episode of care. Indicators , check for IGR and the different forms of diabetes assigned in combination. Total records containing the impaired glucose regulation code 13
14 PICQ TM Indicator Examples Ind. Num Indicator Name Indicator Degree Indicator Type Rationale Denominator Delivery of twins without code for outcome of twin delivery Fatal 4 Spec. "This indicator identifies records containing the code for twin pregnancy and an outcome of delivery code but not one that specifies twin delivery. 'Code also the outcome of delivery' note at Delivery (O80-O84) and 'Code first the delivery' note at Z37 indicates that, for every delivery, the appropriate outcome of delivery code should be added to the mother's record. Before running this indicator, run Indicators and which check for an outcome code in records that require one. Indicators and check for outcome code appropriate to the multiple gestation code." Total records containing the twin pregnancy code and an outcome of delivery code Convalescence code as principal diagnosis followed by rehabilitation code Fatal 5 Sequ. This indicator identifies records with a convalescence code as principal diagnosis and a rehabilitation code. ACS 2104 'Rehabilitation' states that, if both rehabilitation and convalescence care are provided, the rehabilitation code should be sequenced before the convalescence code. Total records with convalescence code as principal diagnosis 14
