ActInjuryCode     

Nature of injury (NOI) codes, which are part of the Work Injury or Disease Information coding system (CAN/CSA-Z795-96 - R2003).

The CSA code set includes 3 parts: Nature of injury (NOI), body part (BP), side of body (SB).

For example:

  • NOI - Cut or laceration Injury = 03400

  • BP - Upper Arm body part = 31100

  • SOB - Left Side of Body = L

The Body Part codes are qualified by the Side of Body codes code system, to be more precise in specifying the location of the injury being coded.
