ICD-10-PCS Principal Procedure Date |

---|
|
Allowable Values: |
MM = Month (01-12)
DD = Day (01-31)
YYYY = Year (20xx)
UTD = Unable to Determine |
Notes for Abstraction: |
- If the principal procedure date is unable to be determined from medical record documentation, select “UTD.”
- The medical record must be abstracted as documented (taken at “face value”). When the date documented is obviously in error (not a valid date/format or is outside of the parameters of care [after Discharge Date]) and no other documentation is found that provides this information, the abstractor should select “UTD.”
Examples:
- Documentation indicates the ICD-10-PCS Principal Procedure Date was 02-42-20xx. No other documentation in the medical record provides a valid date. Since the ICD-10-PCS Principal Procedure Date is outside of the range listed in the Allowable Values for “Day,” it is not a valid date and the abstractor should select “UTD.”
- Patient expires on 02-12-20xx and documentation indicates the ICD-10-PCS Principal Procedure Date was 03-12-20xx. Other documentation in the medical record supports the date of death as being accurate. Since the ICD-10-PCS Principal Procedure Date is after the Discharge Date (death), it is outside of the parameter of care and the abstractor should select “UTD.”
Note: Transmission of a case with an invalid date as described above will be rejected from the QIO Clinical Warehouse and the Joint Commission’s Data Warehouse. Use of “UTD” for ICD-10-PCS Principal Procedure Date allows the case to be accepted into the warehouse.
