Hi

What is the DX code for equivocal exercise stress test for myocardial ischemia?

Does this mean the patient has MI?

Thank you
 
Per ICD-9 this leads you to 414.8, for chronic or with a stated duration of 8 wks.

If documented as acute, 410.9x

without MI 411.89
with coronary (artery) occlusion 411.81

HTH
