ENCOUNTER DIAGNOSIS
This table is often used in conjunction with the billing table to evaluate diagnoses and symptoms and classify a patient’s disease (health condition status).
For some EMR products from some jurisdictions, this information may be a duplication of what is in the billing table; for other EMR products from other jurisdictions, this information is supplemental to what is in the billing table.
Not all diseases and conditions are coded – only 75% of the code and text is coded.
