Medical coding report

The Medical coding report shows the coded data in the study. You can select reports for the dictionaries WHODrug, MedDRA, MedDRA_J, ATC without DDD, and IDF - each containing dictionary-specific columns.

Note! The Medical coding data can be downloaded at all times (via a standard report, sample download, or custom reports) regardless of the user permission set for the role in Viedoc Designer.

Subreports

The medical coding report contains the following sub-reports:

1. MedDRA
2. WHODrug
3. MedDRA_J
4. ATC without DDD
5. IDF
6. UTR for MedDRA
7. UTR for WHODrug
8. UTR for MedDRA_J
9. UTR for ATC without DDD
10. UTR for IDF

Unique Term Report (UTR):

Use the UTR sub-reports to check the quality and consistency of your medical coding. Because the UTR is grouped and condensed, it is typically quicker to review than the standard coding export.

• The report groups identical terms that are coded the same way into a single row, and shows how many cases share that coding.

• If the same term is coded in different ways, it appears on multiple rows (one per coding), with a case count for each. This can indicate an issue in the coding that was selected.

Tip! To focus on potential issues, filter the Coding Discrepancy column.

Additional definitions

Some columns and metrics are further defined below.

# Coded terms

Description

Last term coded on

Description
The last date coded for a particular term in UTC.

# Coded terms approved
