For recording Therapy at this Hospital, do not use code 99 if Class of Case is coded to 00, 30 or 31.
For cases diagnosed January 1, 2010 and forward, referral to a specialist for hematologic transplant or endocrine procedures is considered a recommendation. Follow-up on these cases is required to determine whether a procedure was performed or not, and code accordingly.
Prior to January 1, 2010, referral does not equal a recommendation.
