ClosedSearch Text

The Search Text filter accepts keywords, partial keywords, single letters or numbers found in the short, medium, or long description.

For example, entering j returns codes containing "j" and search results for descriptions containing the letter "j." Entering the number 4 returns all codes with that number in the description.

Enable search spelling suggestions by clicking the check box. When enabled, typing a few letters in the search field will generate a list of potential matches.

ICD-9-CM Diagnosis and ICD-10-CM searches use Inclusion terms (clinical concepts) in the Search Text filter. For example, entering malnutrition in the ICD-10 CM data search will pull code E42 for Marasmic Kwashiorkr, because malnutrition is included in the clinical concepts tied to that code.

ClosedTips for Searching Supplies and Devices

Searching by Model Number

The following is the best practice when searching the Supplies and Devices data set for a model number:

  1. Select the Supplies and Devices data set.
  2. In the Search Text field, enter the model number without dashes, slashes, parentheses, or spaces. For example, enter model number "REF 907-B" as REF907B.

Searching by Product Name or Manufacturer

  1. Select the Supplies and Devices data set.
  2. Enter the name of the product or manufacturer in the Search Text field. The more specific your input, the more closely the results will match what you are looking for.
  3. Note: You can also search for a manufacturer's name by selecting Manufacturer under Field Search. However, if you search using this method, you must enter the manufacturer's name exactly as it appears in the database, or no search results will be returned.
