ORDER_DX_PROC
Description:
The ORDER_DX_PROC table enables you to report on the diagnoses associated with procedures ordered in clinical system. Since one procedure order may be associated with multiple diagnoses, each row in this table is one procedure - diagnosis relation. We have also included patient and contact identification information for each record. Note that system settings may or may not require that procedures be associated with diagnoses. This table contains only information for those procedures and diagnoses that have been explicitly associated. Check with your clinical system Application Administrator to determine how your organization has this set up.
