Thank you for reviewing the AFib Ablation Registry Monthly Case Scenario for May of 2022. The case scenario will be focused on Haas blood stroke sequence number 4070. Mr. Farley is admitted for a planned AFib ablation procedure. His medical history includes hypertension, hemorrhagic stroke in 2018, hepatitis C, and persistent AFib. Mr. Farley's ablation procedure was performed using pulmonary vein isolation as the strategy and was successful in isolating all four of the pulmonary veins. He was discharged home the following day. Based on the pre-procedure assessment and documented history, how will sequence number 4070, Haas blood stroke, be coded? Number one, no, or number two, yes. Please review the documentation and question to determine the best answer. We will give you a few moments to review. And the answer is number two, yes. Based on the Haas blood stroke coding instructions, sequence number 4070 will indicate if the patient has experienced a stroke in the past. The target value for the sequence is any occurrence between birth and the procedure, meaning the documentation used to code this element can come from any history or physical assessment available in the patient's medical record. Unlike the CHADS-2-VASC stroke sequence number 4030, which is coded yes only if the patient has experienced an ischemic stroke or a stroke of undetermined origin, Haas blood stroke, sequence number 4070, is used to indicate if the patient has experienced any stroke, including ischemic, hemorrhagic, and strokes of undetermined origin. Thank you for reviewing the AFib Ablation Registry Monthly Case Scenario for May 2022.
