When billing CPT 93298 & G2066 when should you use Icd 10 Z95.818 vz Z45.09?

Z95.818 for Presence of other cardiac implants and grafts; Z45.09 for Adjustment and Management

Also can i use these Icd 10 alone or do i need to add additional Dx? I notice claims get paid without any additional dx
 
93298 is for an interrogation of an implanted monitoring device. These are diagnostic devices that monitor a patient to help the providers diagnose or treat a condition or symptom. If that's the case, I would use the diagnosis which reports the medical reason for which the patient requires the device because the purpose of the interrogation is not to manage the device but to obtain the information needed to treat the patient.

The Z45 codes are for routine maintenance of a device such as a pacemaker or to check that it is functioning correctly, not for a device that is performing a diagnostic test. The Z95 codes are just status codes and shouldn't be first-listed codes, and also shouldn't be used in conjunction with the Z45 codes due to the exludes1 notes.
