Publication Date: December 2008

Implementation Date: 1/07/2020

ICD 10 AM Edition: Sixth edition

Retired Date: 31/5/2021

Query Number: 2418

Is there is a special code to capture 3D imaging used in EPS and ablations?

Currently we are using 38212-00 [665] Cardiac electrophysiological study, >= 4 catheters (which includes intraoperative cardiac mapping).

Response

The VICC advises to continue assigning 38212-00 [665] Cardiac electrophysiological study, >= 4 catheters as there is no special code to capture 3D imaging used in EPS and ablations.

Note: This query has been retired as the advice is no longer considered current as imaging is considered a procedural component as per ACS 0016 General procedure guidelines.
