The coding systems of the International Classification of Disease, the International Classification of Sleep Disorders, the Diagnostic and Statistic Manual, and the Current Procedural Terminology as they apply to sleep disorder diagnoses are discussed in this chapter....
The diagnostic and procedural codes are mainly used for reporting and reimbursement purposes of health care providers, which is the basic feature in a health care record. Basically, ICD codes are structured and standard data extracted from electronic health records (EHR), which are fundamental and ...

The financial burden of postprocedural complications can be great, as our data indicate that considerable costs are associated with the invasive diagnostic procedures and postprocedural complications. Although none of the costs reported in our study should be directly interpreted as costs associated with...
Upcoding or receiving a more severe diagnosis than necessary, which can cause undue worry and stress for patients and their loved ones Being discharged too earlyor moved to a rehabilitation or long-term care facility too soon, as a way to save the hospital money ...
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their cargo represent an intriguing source of cancer biomarkers for developing robust and sensitive molecular tests by liquid biopsy. Prostate cancer (PCa) is still one of the most frequent and deadly tumor in men and ana
We identified imaging studies using Neiman Imaging Types of Service codes, which classify Current Procedural Terminology and Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System codes by imaging type.24 For each ED visit, we included all imaging claims with an ED place of service occurring on the day of the...
algorithmic-based procedural approach that also include a quantitative assessment of individual morphological features13,41should instead be applied to achieve a clearer separation of true ET from pre-PMF. It should be noticed, however, that the diagnosis of specific subtypes, in particular in early ...
These approaches are associated with an increased risk of procedural complications and clinical intolerability, particularly in patients with respiratory insufficiency [30,31,32]. As a result, noninvasive and reliable biomarkers for ILDs are needed for more effective clinical management and care. ...
