pediatric oncology--- s/l tancamadine infusion

This is a note on a patient with lymphoma. "...pain is being controlled with cad infusion, with basal rate of 1 mg/hour". Dictator pronounces "cad" (not individual letters c-a-d). Am aware of chemotherapy combos (i.e, cyclophosphamide, Adriamycin, dacarbazine, and cytosine, arabinoside, daunorubicin) but am wondering if they would be used for pain control. Also, earlier in the report, the dictator makes it sound as if chemo has been d/c'd. In the back of my ...

What is your opinion on the ICD-9 Procedure code for an infusion of Remicade for rheumatoid arthritis or Crohn's disease? Since this is considered a high-risk drug, the CPT codes are in the antineoplastic category. But matching up a ICD-9 is not clear. Since Remicade is a biologic response modifier you can go down that path. It is also a monoclonal antibody, so you can go down that path. So far I have come up with 99.28, 99.25, 00.18, and the usual 99.29. ...

Would I write the following with subscript? I thought subscript was frowned upon.

I must have missed something. Today I get an email telling me I have to go through some certification process to work on an account I've been working on for the last several years. Was this mentioned prior to this? Nothing was said on the last conference call about it that I recall. I think this is getting a little ridiculous. First the mandatory conference calls, now this. What's next? Seriously, I'm about ready to quit. Maybe that' ...

This is a tough one. The patient is a child who is being intubated. Doc says, "Using standard technique and following the dosing guidelines from the s/l Brassler tape, the patient was intubated." So I don't know if this is like a cassette tape that the doc played to reaffirm how to intubate a small child or if the "tape" is actually an instrument or what. Sorry if this is the stupidest question imaginable, but I have absolutely no clue. Hoping someone will kn ...

Our hospital does not accept abbreviations for oncology medications.
