EPDIR-0921 - Sequence # 7010 | Procedure Type-0921 - Sequence # 7010

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses a case scenario for September 2021 involving an 88-year-old male who has been admitted to a facility. The patient has a history of stage 4 cancer, sick sinus syndrome, and sustained VTAC (ventricular tachycardia). The battery of the patient's dual-chamber ICD (implantable cardioverter-defibrillator) is at the end of its life. After a shared decision-making conversation, the ICD is explanted and a HIS bundle permanent pacemaker is implanted. The question posed is how procedure type sequence number 7010 should be coded. The answer is number one: initial generator implant. The EP Device Implant Registry has a coding guide to help determine the procedure type. The video encourages viewers to review the questions from their peers during the July registry call for further scenarios. Credits were not mentioned.
