Dr. Reed tried to explain wound care to Mr. Baker prior to

could not seem to understand or remember what the doctor
said. Mr. Baker's daughter was with him, so Dr. Reed explained
Mr. Baker's aftercare to his daughter. Dr. Reed should
document discharge instructions

Johnston City was set upon by a swarm of killer bees. All 5,000
residents are at risk of a bee attack. If 25 residents were
attacked by the bees, the incidence of bee attacks
,is 5 in 5,000.
is 25 in 1,000.
cannot be determined at this time.
is 5 in 1,000. - ANSWER >>>>>is 5 in 1,000.

Incidence refers to the number of newly reported cases. An
incident rate is the number of newly reported cases of a disease
in a specified time period divided by the population at that
time.
The quotient is then multiplied by a constant such as 1000 or
100,000.
Calculation:
= 0.005
0.005 x 1000 = 5 per 1,000

See the ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines 2018, Section 1. a.
Sequela (Late Effects) A sequela is the residual effect (condition
produced) after the acute phase of an illness or injury has
terminated. There is no time limit on when a sequela code can
be used. The residual may be apparent early, such as in
cerebral infarction, or it may occur months or years later, such
as that due to a previous injury. Examples of sequela include:
scar formation resulting from a burn, deviated septum due to a
nasal fracture, and infertility due to tubal occlusion from old
tuberculosis. Coding of sequela generally requires two codes
sequenced in the following order: the condition or nature of
the sequela is sequenced first. The sequela code is sequenced
second.
An exception to the above guidelines are those instances where
the code for the sequela is followed by a manifestation code
identified in the Tabular List and title, or the sequela code has
been expanded (at the fourth, fifth, or sixth character levels) to
include the manifestation(s). The code for the acute phase of
an illness or injury that led to the sequela is never used with a
code for the late effect.
The purpose of CMS's National Correct Coding Initiative is to
teach coders how to unbundle codes.
