I recently passed the CPC exam, though I have been working as a risk adjustment coder for nearly a year. There was a scenario wherein the patient has SSS and also has a pacemaker implanted. While I do understand that we cannot code the SSS as active if no attention or treatment is provided to the condition or the pacemaker, is it appropriate to code it as a history if it is pertinent to the scenario?
Please help me with some hard facts and literature. Thank you.
