  1. Under Treating Dx, select Add.
    The Inf Common Assessment window opens.
  2. Select the Common Assessments field to open a picklist, select the diagnosis codes page you want to use, and then select OK.
    The Inf Common Assessment window displays the diagnosis codes page showing all categories and codes that have been configured.
