incandescensThis morning I was running the daily report giving the number of terms waiting to be crossmapped. Yesterday's figures had shown 10 ICD and 167 OPCS codes for a total of 177, and I was comfortably looking forward to less than a hundred total today, after our work yesterday.
I look at the figures.
"Hazel," I say to my coworker, "do you want the good news or the bad news?"
"The good news," she says.
"We're competent, capable, well-adjusted people who can handle things."
"What's the bad news?"
"823 ICD terms."
"WHAT?"
I run some more report. "And 660 OPCS terms."
Apparently the terminologists had come up with a new rule which dumped a whole load more terms to be crossmapped into our part of the system.
So at least I needn't worry about not having enough to do . . .
