This procedure can be reported with the following ICD-10-PCS codes: 02580ZZ, Destruction of conduction mechanism, open approach 02583ZZ, Destruction of conduction mechanism, percutaneous approach
The ablation procedure is directed at the pathway for electrical impulses rather the muscular wall of the heart itself. The atrium is not being destroyed. This procedure can be reported with the following ICD-10-PCS codes: 02580ZZ, Destruction of conduction mechanism, open approach
The “first” arrythmia to be induced is atrial flutter. The provider ablates atrial flutter and induces arrhythmia again. This time, AFib is induced. The physician then isolates the pulmonary veins and ablates the AFib. This scenario is reported using 93656 for the primary AFib ablation and +93655 for the atrial flutter.
93650 was my gut instinct too, but after talking with my physicians they related that to ablate AV node re-entrant tachycardia they are not ablating the AV Node, instead they are ablating the accessory nodal pathway directly adjacent to the AV node.
Then, the provider will perform a transseptal puncture, if needed, to access the left atrium to ablate the locations on the pulmonary veins, either by radiofrequency or cryo-energy ablation. Typically, pulmonary vein isolation is performed again to confirm the ablation was a success or if additional ablation is needed.

The AV node ablation procedure code (93650) is the same as it ever was — no changes here. However, code 93656 stands out as the new atrial fibrillation ablation code.
Ablation codes 93653, 93654, and 93656 do not require a modifier -52. It is incumbent upon the physician to determine which, if any, modifiers should be used first. 93653, 93654, and 93656: CPT‡ codes 93653, 93654, and 93656 coding descriptors were updated by the AMA effective for January 1, 2022.
Dual Chamber Cardiac Pacemaker and Leads Next, a small incision was made into the skin and the leads were percutaneously passed into the right ventricle and right atrium. The ICD-10-PCS code assignment for this case example is: 0JH606Z, Insertion of pacemaker generator. 02H63JZ, Insertion of device in atrium.

92960Codes for electrical cardioversion were CPT code 92960 (elective external cardioversion) and ICD‐9 codes 99.61 (atrial cardioversion) and 99.62 (other electric countershock of heart).
Cardioversion is a medical procedure that uses quick, low-energy shocks to restore a regular heart rhythm. It's a treatment for certain types of irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias), including atrial fibrillation (A-fib).
