Description | Rating |
---|---|
7010 Supraventricular tachycardia: | |
Confirmed by ECG, with five or more treatment interventions per year | 30 |
Confirmed by ECG, with one to four treatment interventions per year; or, confirmed by ECG with either continuous use of oral medications to control or use of vagal maneuvers to control | 10 |
GENERAL RATING FORMULA FOR DISEASES OF THE HEART: | |
During and for three months following myocardial infarction, confirmed by laboratory tests | 100 |
Thereafter, use the General Rating Formula | |
Workload of 3.0 METs or less results in heart failure symptoms | 100 |
Workload of 3.1-5.0 METs results in heart failure symptoms | 60 |
Workload of 5.1-7.0 METs results in heart failure symptoms; or evidence of cardiac hypertrophy or dilatation confirmed by echocardiogram or equivalent (e.g., multigated acquisition scan or MRI) | 30 |
Workload of 7.1-10.0 METs results in heart failure symptoms; or continuous medication required for control | 10 |
Note (1): Examples of supraventricular tachycardia include, but are not limited to:
Atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, sinus tachycardia, sinoatrial nodal reentrant tachycardia,
atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia, atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia,
atrial tachycardia, junctional tachycardia, and multifocal atrial tachycardia.
Note (2): For the purposes of this diagnostic code, a treatment intervention occurs whenever
a symptomatic patient requires intravenous pharmacologic adjustment, cardioversion,
and/or ablation for symptom relief.
