I have read conflicting information on the forum as to whether you can code SSS after a pacemaker has been placed. Does anyone have any clear documentation one way or the other? Thanks!!

For a start, there is no code for history of SSS. If the patient didn't have a pacer they would still have SSS so it's still inherently present. Use V53.31 and 427.81 if they're having a generator change or interrogation/programming of the device.
