Case Log CPT/ICD9 List
All CPT/ICD9 codes in the AMA CPT Code Book have been put into the ACGME Resident Case Log System. The RRCs define the categories of procedures/encounters they want to collect in the System for their specialty, and then determine the appropriate CPT/ICD9 codes for each category. Those cpt codes that the RRC is not tracking at this time are placed into an area and type called unassigned. The resident should be entering in procedures/encounters and choosing CPT?ICD9 code that accurately reflect the procedure/encounter performed or in some cases the CPT/ICD9 code that closely fits the procedure/encounter done. In doing this some procedure/encounters may fall into the unassigned category. While the RRC does not state you do or do not have to enter procedure/encounters not tracked by the RRC it is always in the residents best interest to enter in all procedure/encounters done. When having all procedure/encounters entered the resident can have a full scope of what he/she has done and will be good to have when they need to get hospital privileges and have to show that they have done a particular case. The unassigned cpt codes do show on the reports under the miscellaneous category.
