Should you have either a pacemaker or an ICD, you can still participate in the following activities:
Pacemakers and ICDs generally last 5 to 7 years or longer, depending on usage and the type of device. In most cases, you can lead a normal life with an ICD. Considering this, what are the side effects of a defibrillator?
• Infection: One of the risks of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator is infection. Infection can occur at the implant site. Swelling and bruising are other associated potential risks.

Hence, most of the coder are using unspecified code I42. 9, for nonischemic 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.
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).

05/2016 - This change request (CR) is the 7th maintenance update of ICD-10 conversions and other coding updates specific to national coverage determinations (NCDs). The majority of the NCDs included are a result of feedback received from previous ICD-10 NCD CR7818, CR8109, CR8197, CR8691, CR9087, CR9252, and CR9540. Some are the result of revisions required to other NCD-related CRs released separately. Edits to ICD-10 and other coding updates specific to NCDs will be included in subsequent, quarterly releases as needed. No policy-related changes are included with these updates. Any policy-related changes to NCDs continue to be implemented via the current, long-standing NCD process. ( TN 1665 ) (CR9631)
11/2018 - This Change Request (CR) and Publication (Pub.) 100-03 Medicare NCD Manual reflects the Agency's final decision dated February 15, 2018, regarding the reconsideration of NCD 20.4, Implantable Cardiac Defibrillators. A subsequent CR will be released at a later date that contains a Pub.100-04 Claims Processing Manual update with accompanying instructions. Until that time, the Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) shall be responsible for implementing NCD 20.4. ( TN 209 ) (CR10865)
