How did you decide which SNOMED codes were correct?
> Interestingly, cTAKES identified these instances of "Chemotherapy"
using
codes 363688001 and 367336001.
The UMLS CUI C3665472, with TUI T061 (Therapeutic or Preventive Procedure),
includes the SNOMED codes:
- Chemotherapy (367336001)
- Administration of antineoplastic agent (363688001)
> However, the specific SNOMED codes that accurately represent the
diagnosis of "Chemotherapy"
What's your reason for treating "Chemotherapy" as a diagnosis, rather than
a procedure?
> This particular report has been diagnosed with ICD10 code Z51.11.
The ICD10CM code Z51.11 code description says "Encounter for antineoplastic
chemotherapy".
Like many ICD10CM Z-codes, it's a diagnostic label indicating a procedure
was (to be) performed.
> ...are 373832009, 373833004, 373835006, and 373836007.
Your four SNOMED codes are all closely related, and semantically loaded:
they mean more than just the concept of chemotherapy.
The last three are children of the first, and to me they look mutually
exclusive.
- 373832009: Reason for change in planned chemotherapy treatment (UMLS
CUI: C1298666)
- 373833004: Chemotherapy changed - progressive disease during
chemotherapy (UMLS CUI: C1298667)
- 373835006: Chemotherapy changed due to technical or organizational
problems (UMLS CUI: C1300033)
- 373836007: Chemotherapy changed - patient choice (UMLS CUI:
C1298669)
