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.

If you need to have a pacemaker fitted, a small electrical device called a pacemaker will be surgically implanted in your chest. The pacemaker sends electrical pulses to your heart to keep it beating regularly and not too slowly.
ICD-10-PCS will be the official system of assigning codes to procedures associated with hospital utilization in the United States. ICD-10-PCS codes will support data collection, payment and electronic health records. ICD-10-PCS is a medical classification coding system for procedural codes.
CPT® 33249, Under Pacemaker or Implantable Defibrillator Procedures. The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) code 33249 as maintained by American Medical Association, is a medical procedural code under the range - Pacemaker or Implantable Defibrillator Procedures.
CPT® codes 33210 and 33211 describe insertion or replacement of temporary transvenous single and dual chamber respectively cardiac electrodes or pacemaker cath eters.

If a patient has AF with a slow ventricular response, a pacemaker is addressing the pauses or bradycardia, the resultant symptoms or the risk of a nine-second asystole – like my father had. It is not resolving or eradicating the atrial fibrillation. The AF is still present, underlying the paced rhythm. The bradycardia and pacemaker firing could also be only intermittent, like in my father’s situation. In his case, his post-discharge pacemaker check showed it was only operating 4 percent of the time. If the pacemaker were to malfunction or to be turned off, the observed rhythm would be AF in such a patient. They may even remain on anticoagulation or medication for rate control. AF is a valid diagnosis.
If a patient has an episode of sudden cardiac arrest from which they are resuscitated, and has an AICD implanted, they would carry a diagnosis of Z86.74, Personal history of sudden cardiac arrest and Z95.810, Presence of automatic cardiac defibrillator. They are not in a persistent state of cardiac arrest; it is historical.
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.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac dysrhythmia, afflicting between 2 and 6 million people in the United States. Changes in the anatomy and electrophysiology of the smaller upper chambers of the heart, or atria, cause chaotic electrical impulses, which are unpredictably propagated to the lower chambers, or ventricles, ...
What if a patient undergoes a successful maze procedure for AF, reverts to normal sinus rhythm, and stays in sinus? That would be curative. You could capture personal history codes, but the patient no longer has a current cardiac condition.
If a patient has an arthritic right hip and undergoes a hip replacement, after the surgery, they no longer have that arthritic hip, M16.11; they have a replaced hip joint, Z96.641. They may still have osteoarthritis elsewhere, but the arthritic hip has been eliminated.
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.
