procedures_icd

Billed procedures for patients during their hospital stay.

procedures_icd

During routine hospital care, patients are billed by the hospital for procedures they undergo. This table contains a record of all procedures a patient was billed for during their hospital stay using the ICD-9 and ICD-10 ontologies.

  • d_icd_procedures on icd_code and icd_version

Important considerations

  • Procedures during the hospital stay can be billed (1) by the hospital or (2) by the provider. This table contains only procedures billed by the hospital.

Table columns

Name Postgres data type
subject_id INTEGER NOT NULL
hadm_id INTEGER NOT NULL
seq_num INTEGER NOT NULL
chartdate DATE NOT NULL
icd_code VARCHAR(7)
icd_version INTEGER

subject_id

subject_id is a unique identifier which specifies an individual patient. Any rows associated with a single subject_id pertain to the same individual.

hadm_id

hadm_id is an integer identifier which is unique for each patient hospitalization.

seq_num

An assigned priority for procedures which occurred within the hospital stay.

chartdate

The date of the associated procedures. Date does not strictly correlate with seq_num.

icd_code, icd_version

icd_code is the International Coding Definitions (ICD) code.

There are two versions for this coding system: version 9 (ICD-9) and version 10 (ICD-10). These can be differentiated using the icd_version column. In general, ICD-10 codes are more detailed, though code mappings (or “cross-walks”) exist which convert ICD-9 codes to ICD-10 codes.

Both ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes are often presented with a decimal. This decimal is not required for interpretation of an ICD code; i.e. the icd_code of ‘0010’ is equivalent to ‘001.0’.
