Identifying patients who may be at risk of harm, and mitigating the risks for those patients is a core part of comprehensive care planning and treatment.
The Implementation Toolkit for Clinical Handover Improvement, developed by the Commission, is a 'how to' guide for managers and clinicians reviewing their local clinical handover processes.
The HACs are identified using a combination of ICD-10-AM codes to identify the diagnosis and the condition onset flag (METeOR identifier: 354816) to indicate that the diagnosis occurred during the episode of admitted patient care.
Some HACs also require other codes to define the complication such as procedure and external cause codes.
This hospital-acquired complication (HAC) covers falls occurring in hospital which result in a fracture or intracranial injury resulting in diagnoses of intracranial injury, fractured neck of femur or other fractures.
