About coding Bradytachycardia
The ICD-10-CM code for Bradytachycardia is I49.5 (Sick sinus syndrome).
Within I49 (other cardiac arrhythmias), I49.5 is specifically for sick sinus syndrome. Related codes cover ventricular fibrillation and flutter (I49.0), atrial premature depolarization (I49.1), junctional premature depolarization (I49.2), ventricular premature depolarization (I49.3), other and unspecified premature depolarization (I49.4), other specified cardiac arrhythmias (I49.8) and cardiac arrhythmia, unspecified (I49.9).
Code first cardiac arrhythmia complicating: abortion or ectopic or molar pregnancy (O00-O07, O08.8) and obstetric surgery and procedures (O75.4).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
