Hi,
How would this be coded in ICD-10CM?
In ICD-9 if pt has CAD w/out previous CABG, it codes to 414.01 (native artery)
If pt has CAD and is s/p CABG, this codes to 414.00 (unspecified vessel) and V45.81.
In ICD-10, there is no code for unspecified CAD. There is only CAD of native artery or CAD of bypass graft. So does that mean that unless MD specifies CAD is of bypass graft, it is assumed to be of native coronary artery? I25.10 and Z95.1?
