Should be pointed out that many experts dispute this notion: “Nicholas Kassebaum ... has led an independent analysis looking at [ICD coding] and maternal mortality ... it is very unlikely the rise in deaths comes merely from ... shifts like ... introducing a check box.” SciAm

This is an important point John. In my own field (type 1 diabetes) I've seen vastly different claims of T1D disease incidence. See DIAMOND study cited 312 times since 2006. Data set polluted by false precision. Many lives impacted by T1D never counted.

We know statistic can lie, but we're sucked in all the time. To build up your defenses, I suggest reading: " Naked Statistic -- Stripping the Dread from the Data' by Charles Wheelan. Well written and an eye opening read.
