Hospitalization Rate Due to Bacterial Pneumonia
This indicator shows the hospitalization rates per 100,000 population due to Bacterial Pneumonia. ICD 10 codes used J13, J14, J15.211, J15.212, J15.3, J 15.4, J15.7, J15.9, J16.0, J16.8, J18.0, J181.1J18.9. ICD9 codes used 481, 482.2, 482.30, 482.31, 482.32, 482.39, 482.41, 48242, 482.9, 483.0, 483.1, 483.8, 485, 486. In October 2015, ICD-10-CM codes were implemented. Previous to October 2015, ICD-9-CM codes were used for medical billing. Therefore, 2015 data consists of two distinct coding schemes, ICD-9-CM and ICD-10-CM respectively. Due to this change in coding schemes, data from October 2015 forward may not be directly comparable to previous data.
