Coding Clinic Alphabetical Index
May 1984 to Fourth Quarter 2012
Instructions for use of the
Coding Clinic for ICD-9-CM Index
Main Terms
The Index for Coding Clinic for ICD-9-CM is organized
by main terms. The main terms can stand alone or may be modified by indented
subterms. Diseases are generally indexed by condition and procedures are generally
indexed by type of procedure performed. Occasionally, diseases or procedures,
which may be difficult to locate, may also be indexed by anatomic site or in the
manner in which they are commonly referred. Finally, information and issues other
than those describing diseases and procedures are indexed under nouns. For
example, Official Authorized Addendum is listed as:
Addendum
Official Authorized
Occasionally, information and issues are also indexed in the form in which
they are commonly referred. For example, Joint Commission’s Agenda for
Change includes the following listings:
Joint Commission’s Agenda for Change
and
Agenda for Change
Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare
Organizations
Subterms
A main term may be followed by a series of indented subterms, which modify the main term.
Format
The Index contains four columns. The first column
contains the main term and any subterms for each entry. The second, third,
and fourth columns contain the year, issue, and page(s), respectively, for
each entry. Acronyms or abbreviations are cross-referenced, using the word
“See,” to their complete terms. For example, BOOP is listed as:
BOOP—See “Bronchiolitis Obliterans
with Organizing Pneumonia”
PRO Questions and Answers
Please note that the effective date for each PRO
question and answer is not the date of the Coding Clinic issue in which it

Index to determine the effective date of1 a
