Require Standard Concept, more specific mapping for ICD-10-CM U09.9 " Post COVID condition

[Alexdavv (Alexander Davydov)]

@krfeeney

for those who are suspected to have long COVID

@krfeeney

Observation was the least offensive place to temporarily hold this concept while we better understand

Now I see the point around the Observation domain. Why don’t we call things by their names then?
We have a separate hierarchy of suspected conditions under the Observation domain here and suspected COVID sequela can become a part of it.
Pointing out to the similar discussion we had about COVID…
So it seems the only question is whether we already want to distinguish suspected and “confirmed” sequela of COVID by having 2 separate bucket codes.

@Christian_Reich

This concept could be called sequalae, long, post, or any of these as synonyms.

Sure, but we want it to be crystal clear so users don’t mix it up with any of @Mikita_Salavei’s definitions. Especially considering the moment we’ll be adding these all to the vocabulary. This clarity will support future changes in the terminology and related ETL/mapping adjustments.

@Dymshyts

So, it might be a sequela or a long covid

…as well as any condition that developed following a previous COVID-19 infection.

@Dymshyts

create an OMOP Extension concept, call it “Post COVID-19 condition”

This one conflicts with one of @Mikita_Salavei 's definitions.

@Dymshyts

because it exactly describes this bucket code.

This is supposed to be a level 3 code, not the top guy. While ICD10CM, in fact, is just a history of COVID-19 and the most assumption we can do is mapping to “suspected COVID sequela” (if we believe it deserves a separate concept).
