Configure your ICD question
Collect medical conditions using ICD-10 codes, and use both the code and its name later in variables and conditional logic.
An ICD question collects a medical condition using ICD-10, the tenth revision of the International Classification of Diseases and the common language for recording and reporting diseases. Use it instead of a free-text field wherever the condition has to be comparable or analyzable.
Awell stores both the code and the name
Every condition has a code and a human-readable name, and Awell stores both. "Common cold" is:
- ICD code:
J00 - Name: Acute nasopharyngitis [common cold]
Both values are available as variables
Either can be printed in a message or a clinical note:
- Print answer label gives the condition's name, for text a human reads.
- Print answer value gives the ICD code, for a system that expects the code.
Conditional logic matches on the code, not the name
Conditions reference the ICD code of the selected disease, so a patient can be routed on their diagnosis. Match on the code rather than the name: the code is stable and the display name is not.
