Re: TCS: Non-medical Codes

Of the code sets listed in Appendix C of the IGs, all should propably be considered non-medical except those that are specifically referred to in the rules as medical code sets.

As a "for instance" Revenue codes, used for facility claims reporting, are
considered "non-medical".

Rachel - What would you consider "non-medical" codes?  The Register is
pretty clear on the medical codes, but I have not seen any definite
criteria
or limitation on "non-medical".  Would this include taxonomy codes, zip
codes, -- and what else?  What are your thoughts?
