The International Classification of Health Interventions ( ICHI ) is a system of classifying procedure codes being developed by the World Health Organization (WHO). It is currently available as a beta 3 release. The components for clinical documentation are stable. The component on public health interventions is in the process of being finalized. Updates on development and status of the classification are listed on WHO home page.
12-619: The WHO began development of ICHI in 2012 as a replacement for International Classification of Procedures in Medicine (ICPM), which was a system of classifying procedure codes published from 1978. ICPM, however, never received the same international acceptance as ICD-9 . Due to difficulties in the consultation processes, development of the ICPM effectively stopped in 1989. As a result, nations would go on to develop their own individual classifications for procedures and interventions incompatible with
24-693: A 3rd decimal point will serve to identify individual interventions and methods within one category. ICHI is not linked to SNOMED. In contrast to SNOMED, ICHI covers interventions of all domains in health at the individual and population level. Some procedural concepts that are present in SNOMED CT do not have a corresponding concept in ICHI (e.g., endoscopy). SNOMED CT is using attributes that may link procedures to other related concepts. For example, SNOMED CT concept model for procedure allows linking substances to procedures using 'Direct Substance' attribute. Similarly,
36-460: A deviating scope. Cooperation of ISO and WHO is not detected. Procedure code Type of medical classification This article is about the system of medical classification. For procedural code as used in computer programming, see Procedural programming . Procedure codes are a sub-type of medical classification used to identify specific surgical , medical , or diagnostic interventions . The structure of
48-665: A medical billing process used by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). Prior to 2001, CMS was known as the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA). HCPCS was established in 1978 to provide a standardized coding system for describing the specific items and services provided in the delivery of health care. Such coding is necessary for Medicare , Medicaid , and other health insurance programs to ensure that insurance claims are processed in an orderly and consistent manner. Initially, use of
60-484: Is different from Wikidata Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System The Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System ( HCPCS , often pronounced by its acronym as "hick picks") is a set of health care procedure codes based on the American Medical Association 's Current Procedural Terminology (CPT). The acronym HCPCS originally stood for HCFA Common Procedure Coding System ,

84-613: The ICHI allows postcoordination with devices or substances. As a result, the scope for the set of relationships in ICHI is broader than in SNOMED CT, due to the common foundation with ICD-11 . The first test approach to ICHI was largely derived from the Australian Classification of Health Interventions (ACHI), a portion of the Australian standard ICD-10-AM , which in turn was largely derived from ICD-10 and
96-541: The ICPM approach. Germany's OPS-301 is based on the Dutch extension of ICPM; the ICPM-DE. The ICHI's framework is designed to allow international comparison of data from the known national interventions classifications, and as a system for clinical documentation of individual interventions. ICHI is using letters to identify a procedure. For example, code EAA.AD.AA is for Biopsy of Pituitary gland. A decimal number following

120-614: The United States extension ICD-9-CM . However, that approach was later dropped. For accounting, the Australian health administration generated a code of Diagnosis-related groups which in effect again deviates from the WHO basis. The same phenomenon applies to DRG codes in Germany and other countries. Other codes generated by the UN accredited International Standards Organisation ISO defined
