LOINC description : Some computer edits identify errors. Others indicate possible errors that require
manual review for resolution. To eliminate the need to review the same cases repeatedly,
over-ride flags have been developed to indicate that data in a record (or records)
have been reviewed and, while unusual, are correct. This over-ride is used with the
following edits in the NAACCR Metafile of the EDITS software: Diagnostic Confirmation,
Histol Typ (COC) Diagnostic Confirmation, Histologic Typ (SEER IF48) Diagnostic Confirmation,
Histol Typ ICDO3 (COC) Diagnostic Confirmation, Histology ICDO3 (SEER IF48) Some edits
check for code combinations that are possible, but quite rare. If the code combination
generates an error message and review of the case indicates that the codes are correct
for the case, then the over-ride flag is used to skip the edit in the future. See
Chapter IV, Recommended Data Edits and Software Coordination of Standards. Over-ride
Flag as Used in the EDITS Software Package Edits of the type Diagnostic Confirmation,
Histol Typ differ in use of ICD-O-2 or ICD-O-3 and check the following: Since lymphoma
and leukemia are almost exclusively microscopic diagnoses, this edit forces review
of any cases of lymphoma that have diagnostic confirmation of direct visualization
or clinical, and any leukemia with a diagnostic confirmation of direct visualization.
If histology 9590-9717 for ICD-O-2 or 9590-9729 for ICD-O-3 (lymphoma) then Diagnostic
Confirmation cannot be 6 (direct visualization) or 8 (clinical). If histology 9720-9941
for ICD-O-2 or 9731-9948 for ICD-O-3 (leukemia and other) then Diagnostic Confirmation
cannot be 6 (direct visualization). Instructions for Coding Leave blank if the program
does not generate an error message for the edits of the type Diagnostic Confirmation,
Histol Typ. Leave blank and correct any errors for the case if an item is discovered
to be incorrect. If the edit produces an error or warning message, verify that the
Histologic Type and Diagnostic Confirmation are correctly coded. Remember that positive
hematologic findings and bone marrow specimens are included as histologic confirmation
(code 1 in Diagnostic Confirmation) for leukemia. Code 1 indicates that a review has
taken place and histologic type and diagnostic confirmation are correctly coded...
