I am new to Cardiology and need to know how to code the EKG for Ventricular pacing?? how do you look that ID9 code up? would I also use V45.01?

Hi,
can code 427.89 first;
V45.01 may be coded as a later diagnosis;

Stress tests EKGs are not paid with V45.01;

But don't give 794.31 as this requires ECG copy to be sent too.
