Hello,
Does anyone know if diagnoses of NSTEMI (410.71) or ACS (411.1) will support the new CPT code for "PTCI during AMI (92941)" procedure code?

Does the AMA or CMS have a list of diagnosis codes that support Medical Necessity for submitting the 92941 procedure code?


Thanks for any info that you can provide!

Hi Elizabeth,
I do not have a list (LCD/NCD) but it seems logical that to code 92941 would by necessity mean an AMI would need to be the diagnosis (410.00-410.92).

If the patient is not having AMI, then 92920-92937,92943 should be coded.

HTH :)
