The new codes are for describing the infusion of tixagevimab and cilgavimab monoclonal antibody (code XW023X7), and the infusion of other new technology monoclonal antibody (code XW023Y7).
The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.
Your doctor will talk to you about your symptoms and medical history. You will also have testing to determine if you have ventricular tachycardia. The most common test used to diagnose ventricular tachycardia is an electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG). An EKG records your heart’s electrical activity.
The appropriate ICD‐9 code for ventricular tachycardia is 427.1 (HCC 96), Paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia, (with or without documentation of “paroxysmal”). In ICD‐ 10, ventricular tachycardia leads to code I47. 2 (HCC 96), Ventricular tachycardia.
I47. 2 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 I47.
In ICD-10-CM the codes would be I47. 2, ventricular tachycardia, and code I46. 9, Cardiac arrest, unspecified.
ICD-10-CM Code for Tachycardia, unspecified R00. 0.
Other specified cardiac arrhythmias I49. 8 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 I49. 8 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) is a common arrhythmia encountered in modern clinical cardiology. In general, NSVT is defined as 3 or more consecutive ventricular beats with an RR interval of 600 ms and lasting <30 second.
The difference between the two is that in ventricular tachycardia, the lower chambers of the heart are beating much faster than they should but the overall process is happening in the right order. In ventricular fibrillation, the heart's beating process isn't happening in the right order.
Patients with pulseless ventricular tachycardia are treated the same as those with ventricular fibrillation, meaning they require immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation. Once the rhythm converts, the patient will need an infusion of amiodarone or lidocaine.

An abnormally rapid heartbeat, usually applied to a heart rate above 100 per minute.
ICD-10-CM Code for Supraventricular tachycardia I47. 1.
Tachyarrhythmia originating either from the atria or the atrioventricular node.
A disorder characterized by a dysrhythmia with abrupt onset and sudden termination of atrial contractions with a rate of 150-250 beats per minute. The rhythm disturbance originates in the atria.
