Abnormal electrocardiogram [ECG] [EKG] R94.31 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM R94.31 became effective on October 1, 2019. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of R94.31 - other international versions of ICD-10 R94.31 may differ.
The R94.31 is what we use for the low QRS voltage. However, she insists on coding R94.31 even if there is atrial fibrillation as a first-code (which i disagree with). Atrial fibrillation is an acceptable dx for EKG reading and interpretation.
Low income. Z59.6 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM Z59.6 became effective on October 1, 2019.
Our coder coded as I50.23, I51.7, R94.31. EKG report did not mention CHF but in fact patient has it as one of his dx as inpt. Is this correct? Thanks. First, code R94.31 is not appropriate to report when there is a definitive diagnosis given. See chapter specific guidelines.
ICD-10 code R94. 31 for Abnormal electrocardiogram [ECG] [EKG] is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .

Unspecified right bundle-branch block I45. 10 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 I45. 10 became effective on October 1, 2021.
ICD-10-CM Code for Cardiomegaly I51. 7.
Nonspecific intraventricular conduction delay exists if the ECG displays a widened QRS appearance that is neither a left bundle branch block (LBBB) nor a right bundle branch block (RBBB). Thus, the appearance of nonspecific intraventricular conduction delay may be rather nuanced.
Description. intraventricular conduction disorders are a group of conduction disturbances characterized by abnormalities in intraventricular conduction that leads to changes in shape, duration, and/or axis of the QRS complex on the electrocardiogram 1.
Supraventricular tachycardiaICD-10 code: I47. 1 Supraventricular tachycardia | gesund.bund.de.
Unspecified atrial fibrillationThe code for “atrial fibrillation with RVR” is I48. 91 Unspecified atrial fibrillation.
10 for Atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery without angina pectoris is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
Left ventricular failure, unspecified I50. 1 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 I50. 1 became effective on October 1, 2021.
A left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is implanted in the chest. It helps pump blood from the lower left heart chamber (left ventricle) to the rest of the body. A control unit and battery pack are worn outside the body and are connected to the LVAD through a small opening (port) in the skin.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I50. 33 became effective on October 1, 2021.
The R94.31 is what we use for the low QRS voltage. However, she insists on coding R94.31 even if there is atrial fibrillation as a first-code (which i disagree with). Atrial fibrillation is an acceptable dx for EKG reading and interpretation. Thanks!
First, code R94.31 is not appropriate to report when there is a definitive diagnosis given. See chapter specific guidelines. Secondly, are these diagnoses, i.e., I50.23 and I51.7, provided in the indications or on the order for the EKG? Because then they would be substantiated. I would review the order or indications for the diagnosis code, if not R94.31 might be your option.
R94.31 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of abnormal electrocardiogram [ecg] [ekg]. The code R94.31 is valid during the fiscal year 2021 from October 01, 2020 through September 30, 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
Electrocardiogram (EKG), (ECG) An electrocardiogram, also called an ECG or EKG, is a painless test that detects and records your heart's electrical activity. It shows how fast your heart is beating and whether its rhythm is steady or irregular. An EKG may be part of a routine exam to screen for heart disease.
Echocardiography, or echo, is a painless test that uses sound waves to create moving pictures of your heart. The pictures show the size and shape of your heart. They also show how well your heart's chambers and valves are working. Doctors use an echo to diagnose many different heart problems, and to check how severe they are.
