Looking for clarification on the ICD/CPT update that is supposed to be installed with the July KB update. I've read through all the release notes, and seem to be getting mixed information. The release notes for the July KB update state that the ICD/CPT codes are included, but on the bottom of the release notes it states that it's a separate install. However, the Access Downloads page on the service portal state that we need to install the special ICD/CPT package as well. In addition, the latest ICD/CPT codes that are available on the portal are June; there is no July.

Also, there is now a CQM patch that needs to be installed on top of the July KB but those release notes also state that the latest ICD/CPT codes should be installed before the patch is installed.

I'm planning to perform these installs in the morning, so any insight and/or clarification is much appreciated.

Thanks!

Natalie

The ICD/CPT codes are generally on the full update. We had 2 full updates in a row as catch up. This was only an incremental.

Hi Natalie - I understand your confusion, as I read it the same way. I ended up applying the special icd/cpt code update first, then I applied the July Incremental update. Everything went without a hitch.
I haven't yet applied the cqm update, but plan to later today. Did you apply this already?
Hope everything went well for you.
