Infection of pacemaker Infection of prosthetic valve ICD-10-CM T82.6XXA is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group (s) (MS-DRG v38.0): 314 Other circulatory system diagnoses with mcc
Some say because the PCP has to prescribe medications, they should still be able to code afib. Some say once the pacemaker is placed, they should only code the pacemaker.” She then asked my opinion. I have a greater appreciation for this after my father had a recent admission for a heart rate of 27.
Infect/inflm reaction due to cardiac valve prosthesis, init; Implanted defibrillator generator infection; Infected pacemaker; Infection and inflammatory reaction due to cardiac valve prosthesis; Infection of implanted defibrillator generator; Infection of pacemaker; Infection of prosthetic valve ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code Z95.0 [convert to ICD-9-CM]
Historically, the advice of Coding Clinic, stemming back to 1993, was that once a pacemaker was placed for SSS, you only coded the pacemaker’s presence.

ICD-10 code Z86. 79 for Personal history of other diseases of the circulatory system is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
Personal history of other infectious and parasitic diseases Z86. 19 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 Z86. 19 became effective on October 1, 2021.

Anticoagulation is often prescribed, because clots can form in the heart and be embolized to the brain, causing strokes. Pacemakers in atrial fibrillation are most commonly placed for symptomatic bradycardia, either medication-induced or due to aging, diseased heart muscle. It is less common to insert a pacemaker for overdrive atrial pacing.

It is less common to insert a pacemaker for overdrive atrial pacing. The pacemaker does not directly treat atrial fibrillation, and it certainly does not cure or resolve it. There are reasons why we code. We translate the acute patient encounter into codes to determine reimbursement.
