It is a very very very bad practice to ask clinicians to code! Standardizing diagnosis is a very different thing than asking clinicians to code, the first is the strategy, the second is one possible, and bad, implementation.
There are 3 ways of "coding" that I know of: 1. primary coding (ask clinicians and other clinical users to code directly), 2. secondary coding (users record information, a team of specialists do the coding later), 3. assisted coding (software helps users to code, and there are many ways of doing this, from NLP to GUI wizards). But I'm not sure if Karsten was talking about this, let's wait :) On Tue, Mar 13, 2018 at 3:25 PM, Diego Boscá <[email protected]> wrote: > I assume the reason is that asking clinicians to do coding without any > help provides great variability and leads to coding errors.
