OPCS 4.7 - Office of Population Censuses and Surveys, 4th Revision devised by the National Classifications Service which is a national publication and covers all operative procedures and interventions. To ensure completeness of coding the Clinical Coder has access to many systems such as pathology, radiology, maternity, renal and maternity clinical systems.
