Cancer Therapy Look-up Tables: Pharmacy, Procedure & Diagnosis CodesCancer therapy "look-up" tables were created by extracting codes from published research, NCI Web sites (e.g., Procedure Codes for SEER-Medicare Analyses), health plan formularies, and expert clinician opinion (e.g., medical oncologists, oncology clinical pharmacists). These tables contain over 2,000 NDC and 300 procedure and diagnosis cancer treatment-related codes. The tables are updated when new products or codes are identified. The pharmacy, procedure, and diagnosis codes are stratified by class of product (e.g., chemotherapy, hormone therapy, immunotherapy) and code type (e.g., ICD-9, HCPCS).
These tables are also available, along with some programs for managing them, in this GitHub repository. Caveats: Probably not every code in existence is present. Some of the drugs listed might be used in non-cancer settings. The class product may not be correct for all codes. There are codes for infusion additives that are pharmaceuticals but not drugs per se (e.g., D5W). Please reference the Cancer Research Network (U19 CA79689) if you will be using or producing any reports or publications from these look-up tables. |
