Accuracy of administrative claims data for polypectomy.
BACKGROUND The frequency of polypectomy is an important indicator of quality assurance for population-based colorectal cancer screening programs. Although administrative databases of physician claims provide population-level data on the performance of polypectomy, the accuracy of the procedure codes has not been examined. We determined the level of agreement between physician claims for polypec...

متن کاملStatistical Assessment of a Case-Finding Algorithm for Identifying Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (Nsclc) Patients in Administrative Claims Databases.
● The International Classification of Diseases, 9th revision, clinical modification (ICD-9-CM) coding system uses the codes 162.2-5, 162.8-9 and 231.2 for identifying patients with lung cancer. ● The ICD-9-CM system does not distinguish the 2 major types of lung cancer — small–cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non–small–cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This presents challenges in database research that limi...
