proc_subcategory

Parameter specifying the procedural subcategory corresponding to CPT/HCPCS procedural code.

Usability Options:

  • Selected proc_subcategory parameter options may be leveraged in the CareQuery API as
    • A string: proc_subcategory = "anesthesia - head"
    • A list of strings for OR logic: proc_subcategory = ["anesthesia - head", "surgery - auditory system"]
    • List of lists of strings for AND logic: proc_subcategory = [["anesthesia - head"], ["surgery - auditory system"]]

Help within CareQuery API:

# import package
from care_query.care_query import CareQuery

# instantiate and connect
cq = CareQuery(email = "your-email", 
               token = "your-api-token")

# search parameter options available 
print(cq.glossary.list_options(parameter = "proc_subcategory"))
