Seq#5256 (Agatston Calcium Score Assessed)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The agastin calcium score's sequence 5256 is used to assess if the score was measured between birth or a past procedure and the current one. It's easier to apply by focusing on two separate thoughts: for new care episodes, use the last value between birth and the current procedure; for cath lab visits after a procedure, use the last value between the previous procedure and the current one. This is particularly applicable for patients visiting ambulatory centers or labs, aiming to capture the agastin calcium score from birth to the current procedure, disregarding past PCI or CABG history.
