I'm attempting to delete a procedure code that we no longer want to use but I'm getting an error message, "Cannot delete. This code is being used in other tables." How can we remove the code from our account?

Once a procedure code has been entered in a patient record, the coded cannot be deleted. Instead, the procedure code may be 'Unassigned' from the Office so that it's no longer available for selection. 

To unassign a Procedure Code from the Office:

·Click the word “Setup”, "Offices", and choose the “Office Assignment” option from the drop-down box

·Click the desired location

·Click the Edit button

·Click the Procedures tab

·Choose the desired procedure category

·On the right side (Assigned Procedure Codes), select the desired procedure(s)

·Use the arrows in the center of the screen to move from the right side (Assigned Procedure Codes) to the left side (Available Procedure Codes)

·Click the Save button
