ICD-9-CM procedure code (retired)
00.53 — Implantation or replacement of cardiac resynchronization pacemaker pulse generator only [CRT-P]
About ICD-9-CM 00.53
00.53 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for implantation or replacement of cardiac resynchronization pacemaker pulse generator only [CRT-P]. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-PCS took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 8 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 0JH607Z (Insertion of Cardiac Resynchronization Pacemaker Pulse Generator into Chest Subcutaneous Tissue and Fascia, Open Approach), 0JH607Z (Insertion of Cardiac Resynchronization Pacemaker Pulse Generator into Chest Subcutaneous Tissue and Fascia, Open Approach) and 0JH637Z (Insertion of Cardiac Resynchronization Pacemaker Pulse Generator into Chest Subcutaneous Tissue and Fascia, Percutaneous Approach). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one. Some mappings are combinations: more than one ICD-10 code is needed to fully express the ICD-9 code.
