Full Answer
if it is a radiology report you should code only V72.81 , there is no other code able information in this scenario ''anteroseptal infarct age undetermined'' this is diagnosis is not conformed diagnosis so this should not code.. It states abnormal EKG so why not 79431?
Finding Synonyms: Old or Age Indeterminate Anteroseptal Myocardial Infarction by EKG Finding Definition An electrocardiographic finding of pathologic Q waves in leads V1 through V4, which is suggestive of myocardial infarction of the anteroseptal wall of the left ventricle, without evidence of current or ongoing acute infarction.

Right), lobe (e.g., frontal lobe infarction), arterial distribution (e.g., infarction, anterior cerebral artery), and etiology (e.g., embolic infarction). ICD-10-CM I63.9 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group (s) (MS-DRG v38.0):
Anteroseptal MI on ECG usually is characterized by the presence of ST-elevations in V1-V3 leads acutely followed by the development of Q waves in V1-V3 precordial leads. The presence of Q-waves in these leads is classically referred to as an age-indeterminate anteroseptal infarct.
ICD-10 Code for ST elevation (STEMI) myocardial infarction involving other coronary artery of anterior wall- I21. 09- Codify by AAPC.
The term “anteroseptal” refers to a location of the heart in front of the septum — the wall of tissue that separates the left and right sides of the heart. An infarct is an obstruction of blood supply to an organ or region of tissue, which can lead to cell death.
ICD-10-CM Code for ST elevation (STEMI) myocardial infarction of anterior wall I21. 0.
An anterior wall myocardial infarction occurs when anterior myocardial tissue usually supplied by the left anterior descending coronary artery suffers injury due to lack of blood supply.
29.
Isolated anteroseptal infarction is very uncommon. The coronary artery supplying these segments is most commonly the left anterior descending artery and its septal branches, however, anatomical variation is sometimes a possibility.
An inferior myocardial infarction (MI) is a heart attack or cessation of blood flow to the heart muscle that involves the inferior side of the heart. Inferior MI results from the total occlusion of either the right coronary artery in 85% of the cases or the left circumflex in 15% of the cases.
Inferior wall myocardial infarction (MI) occurs from a coronary artery occlusion with resultant decreased perfusion to that region of the myocardium. Unless there is timely treatment, this results in myocardial ischemia followed by infarction.
Acute myocardial infarction, unspecified I21. 9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I21. 9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
