I need some insight on a pre-op EKG physician documeted abnormal EKG anteroseptal infarct age undetermined what ICD-9 code should be used? other than the V72.81 for the pre-op EKG
 
HI,
if it is a radiology report you should code only V72.81 , there is no other code able information in this scenario ''anteroseptal infarct age undetermined'' this is diagnosis is not conformed diagnosis so this should not code..

Thanks,
