Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) Cohort

The CABG cohort is aligned with the CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services) Procedure-Specific Readmission measure for CABG. It includes patients with a principal procedure of CABG and excludes encounters with certain other complicating diagnoses or procedures.

To leverage this cohort:

  • Profile filters: In the Profile Editor, add the cohort as a profile filter. With this option, you can further customize the profile with additional filters.
  • Statistical Process Control: Add a Statistical Process Control section to a Scorecard and select the cohort from the dropdown. Within this section, the cohort is not customizable and must be used as-is. When drilling into a chart in the SPC section, you can select to create a profile of the encounters you're drilling into so you can analyze and customize further.

Cohort inclusions

To be eligible for the CABG Cohort, the encounter must have an ICD-10 Principal Procedure Code for a Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (one of: 0210093, 0210098, 0210099, 0210493, 0210498, 0210499, 0211093, 0211098, 0211099, 0211493, 0211498, 0211499, 0212093, 0212098, 0212099, 0212493, 0212498, 0212499, 0213093, 0213098, 0213099, 0213493, 0213498, 0213499, 021009C, 021009F, 021009W, 02100A3, 02100A8, 02100A9, 02100AC, 02100AF, 02100AW, 02100J3, 02100J8, 02100J9, 02100JC, 02100JF, 02100JW, 02100K3, 02100K8, 02100K9, 02100KC, 02100KF, 02100KW, 02100Z3, 02100Z8, 02100Z9, 02100ZC, 02100ZF, 021048C, 021048F, 021048W, 021049C, 021049F, 021049W, 02104AC, 02104AF, 02104AW, 02104J3, 02104J8, 02104J9, 02104JC, 02104JF, 02104JW, 02104K3, 02104K8, 02104K9, 02104KC, 02104KF, 02104KW, 02104Z3, 02104Z8, 02104Z9, 02104ZC, 02104ZF, 021109C, 021109F, 021109W, 02110A3, 02110A8, 02110A9, 02110AC, 02110AF, 02110AW, 02110J3, 02110J8, 02110J9, 02110JC, 02110JF, 02110JW, 02110K3, 02110K8, 02110K9, 02110KC, 02110KF, 02110KW, 02110Z3, 02110Z8, 02110Z9, 02110ZC, 02110ZF, 021149C, 021149F, 021149W, 02114A3, 02114A8, 02114A9, 02114AC, 02114AF, 02114AW, 02114J3, 02114J8, 02114J9, 02114JC, 02114JF, 02114JW, 02114K3, 02114K8, 02114K9, 02114KC, 02114KF, 02114KW, 02114Z3, 02114Z8, 02114Z9, 02114ZC, 02114ZF, 021209C, 021209F, 021209W, 02120A3, 02120A8, 02120A9, 02120AC, 02120AF, 02120AW, 02120J3, 02120J8, 02120J9, 02120JC, 02120JF, 02120JW, 02120K3, 02120K8, 02120K9, 02120KC, 02120KF, 02120KW, 02120Z3, 02120Z8, 02120Z9, 02120ZC, 02120ZF, 021249C, 021249F, 021249W, 02124A3, 02124A8, 02124A9, 02124AC, 02124AF, 02124AW, 02124J3, 02124J8, 02124J9, 02124JC, 02124JF, 02124JW, 02124K3, 02124K8, 02124K9, 02124KC, 02124KF, 02124KW, 02124Z3, 02124Z8, 02124Z9, 02124ZC, 02124ZF, 021309C, 021309F, 021309W, 02130A3, 02130A8, 02130A9, 02130AC, 02130AF, 02130AW, 02130J3, 02130J8, 02130J9, 02130JC, 02130JF, 02130JW, 02130K3, 02130K8, 02130K9, 02130KC, 02130KF, 02130KW, 02130Z3, 02130Z8, 02130Z9, 02130ZC, 02130ZF, 021349C, 021349F, 021349W, 02134A3, 02134A8, 02134A9, 02134AC, 02134AF, 02134AW, 02134J3, 02134J8, 02134J9, 02134JC, 02134JF, 02134JW, 02134K3, 02134K8, 02134K9, 02134KC, 02134KF, 02134KW, 02134Z3, 02134Z8, 02134Z9, 02134ZC, 02134ZF, 0210083, 0210088, 0210089, 0210483, 0210488, 0210489, 0211083, 0211088, 0211089, 0211483, 0211488, 0211489, 0212083, 0212088, 0212089, 0212483, 0212488, 0212489, 0213083, 0213088, 0213089, 0213483, 0213488, 0213489, 021008C, 021008F, 021008W, 02104A3, 02104A8, 02104A9, 021108C, 021108F, 021108W, 021148C, 021148F, 021148W, 021208C, 021208F, 021208W, 021248C, 021248F, 021248W, 021308C, 021308F, 021308W, 021348C, 021348F, 021348W).
