in the US healthcare system

rules and
guidelines required when reporting medical services and procedures performed by
physician and nonphysician orders.
- ICD codes: International classification of disease. Used to provide payer info on
necessity of visit or procedure performed.
6. Discuss how specificity, sensitivity & predictive value contribute to the
usefulness of the diagnostic data
- Specificity: The ability of the test to correctly detect a specific condition. If a
patient has a
condition but test is negative, it is a false negative. If a patient does NOT have a
condition but the test is positive , it is a false positive.
- Sensitivity: Test that has few false negatives. Ability of a test to correctly identify
a specific condition when it is present. The higher the sensitivity, the lesser the
likelihood of a false negative.
- Predictive Value: The likelihood that the pt actually has the condition and is, in
part, dependent upon the prevalence of the condition in the population. If a condition is
highly likely, the positive result would be more accurate.
7. Discuss the elements that need to be considered when developing a plan
Patient’s preferences and actions. Research evidence. Clinical state/circumstances.
