I need help in finding the icd-9 code for this. My doctor said use 414.00. But this didnt work we have a denial. Last year someone told us it was 793.99- that wasnt right either. Help!!! Thanks in advance..........
 
what CPT are you coding? If it is the scan itself, check with Medicare if there is an LCD list for the scan. Unfortunately there isn't a dx for abnormal calcium score. I've had to look for this dx and didnt find anything.

good luck,

Dolores
