It contains routines, data, and data dictionary changes to recognize code sets for the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) and Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS). When implemented, applications will be able to retrieve appropriate CPT and HCPCS codes based upon a date that a clinical event occurred. This patch is one of three installs contained in a combined KIDS distribution: CSV UTIL 1.0 LEX*2.0*25 ICD*18.0*6 ICPT*6.0*14 The combined distribution consist of both a KIDS host file and a data global host file: KIDS Distribution CSV_UTIL_1_0.KID Data Global CSV_UTIL_1_0.GBL Installing the CSV UTIL 1.0 build provides all of the updates listed below. Sites will use the Multi-Build Distribution to ensure the proper order of installation for the LEX, CPT, and ICD utilities. This update includes additions and modifications to entries in the CPT file (#81), and the CPT MODIFIER file (#81.3). FILE SUMMARY ============ Changes to CPT file (#81) ------------------------- * The field INACTIVE DATE (#7) is created * The field ACTIVE DATE (#8) is created * The existing CPT CODE field (#.01) is modified to add MUMPS cross reference ACT * The existing EFFECTIVE DATE field (#.01) on the EFFECTIVE DATE multiple (#81.02) is modified to add MUMPS cross reference ACT * The existing STATUS field (#.02) on the EFFECTIVE DATE multiple (#81.02) is modified to add MUMPS cross reference ACT Changes to CPT MODIFIER file (#81.3) ------------------------------------ * The field INACTIVE DATE (#7) is created * The field ACTIVE DATE (#8) is created * The existing MODIFIER field (#.01) is modified to add two MUMPS cross references: ACT, and BA * The existing EFFECTIVE DATE field (#.01) on the EFFECTIVE DATE multiple (#81.33) is modified to add MUMPS cross reference ACT * The existing STATUS field (#.02) on the EFFECTIVE DATE multiple (#81.33) is modified to add MUMPS cross reference ACT NEW PROTOCOL ============ ICPT CODE UPDATE EVENT has been added to notify subscribing applications of a CPT Code Update. NEW APIs ======== The following APIs are nationally supported. Refer to DBIA #1995, and DBIA #1997 for details concerning input parameters and output of the calls. $$CODEC^ICPTCOD Extrinsic function call converts an Internal Entry Number into a CPT or HCPCS code. $$CODEN^ICPTCOD Extrinsic function call converts the CPT or HCPCS code into an Internal Entry Number. $$STATCHK^ICPTAPIU Extrinsic function call returns whether or not a given CPT or HCPCS code is active or inactive on a given date. $$NEXT^ICPTAPIU Extrinsic function call returns the next CPT or HCPCS Code (active or inactive). $$PREV^ICPTAPIU Extrinsic function call returns the previous CPT or HCPCS Code (active or inactive). $$HIST^ICPTAPIU Extrinsic function call returns the activation history of a CPT or HCPCS Code. PERIOD^ICPTAPIU Function call to retrieve the activation/inactivation pairs of a CPT Code. MODIFIED APIs ============= $$CPT^ICPTCOD and $$MODT^ICPTMOD -------------------------------- The output of the function call has been augmented to contain the Inactivation Date, the Activation Date, and an alert that Code text may be inaccurate. $$CPTD^ICPTCOD -------------- The output of the function call has been augmented to contain an alert that Code text may be inaccurate.
