This type generally occurs in middle-aged people. When the cardiomyopathy is associated with alcoholism, assign code 425.5 for alcoholic cardiomyopathy. The most common type of dilated cardiomyopathy develops after a heart attack and is called ischemic cardiomyopathy (414.8).
When a patient presents with CHF and cardiomyopathy, treatment is typically focused on managing CHF. Therefore, sequence a code from category 428, Heart failure, as the principal diagnosis with code 425.4 added as a secondary diagnosis (AHA Coding Clinic for ICD-9-CM, 1990, second quarter, page 19).
Presence of automatic (implantable) cardiac defibrillator. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of Z95.810 - other international versions of ICD-10 Z95.810 may differ.
When the cardiomyopathy is associated with alcoholism, assign code 425.5 for alcoholic cardiomyopathy. The most common type of dilated cardiomyopathy develops after a heart attack and is called ischemic cardiomyopathy (414.8). All ischemic cardiomyopathies are classified to code 414.8 ( AHA Coding Clinic for ICD-9-CM, 1990, third quarter, page 15).

I42. 9 - Cardiomyopathy, unspecified | ICD-10-CM.
Defibrillation is a treatment for life-threatening cardiac dysrhythmias, specifically ventricular fibrillation (VF) and non-perfusing ventricular tachycardia (VT). A defibrillator delivers a dose of electric current (often called a counter-shock) to the heart.
You may need an ICD if you have survived sudden cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation, or have fainted due to ventricular arrhythmia, or if you have certain inherited heart conditions. An ICD is generally needed for those at high risk of cardiac arrest due to a ventricular arrhythmia.

Coding for Cardiomyopathy in ICD-10-CM I42. 9, Cardiomyopathy, unspecified (includes cardiomyopathy [primary] [secondary] NOS).
Overview. Cardiomyopathy (kahr-dee-o-my-OP-uh-thee) is a disease of the heart muscle that makes it harder for the heart to pump blood to the rest of the body. Cardiomyopathy can lead to heart failure. The main types of cardiomyopathy include dilated, hypertrophic and restrictive cardiomyopathy.
Dilated cardiomyopathy, also sometimes referred to as dilated, non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, is a type of heart muscle disease that causes the left ventricle of the heart to stretch abnormally. This prevents your heart from pumping blood effectively.
There is an important distinction between defibrillation and cardioversion: Defibrillation — Defibrillation is the asynchronous delivery of energy, such as the shock is delivered randomly during the cardiac cycle. Cardioversion — Cardioversion is the delivery of energy that is synchronized to the QRS complex.
In AFib, the heart's rate and rhythm will become irregular. Although serious, AFib is not typically an immediately life-threatening event. In VFib, the heart will no longer pump blood. VFib is a medical emergency that will lead to death if not treated promptly.
There are several different kinds of defibrillation devices. The two major types are automated external defibrillators (AEDs) and automatic implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs). AEDs are used in emergency situations involving cardiac arrest.
