Description

This two-part cardiovascular service line course will provide a review of cardiac anatomy and function and explain how to code common procedures involving the circulatory system.  This course is comprised of four lessons: anatomy and function of the heart and vascular system; structure of cardiovascular PCS codes; procedures on the heart, and great vessels and coding practice exercises.

Objectives:

Lesson 1: Anatomy and Function of the Heart and Vascular System

  • Label the heart valves on a heart diagram
  • Differentiate between arteries, veins, and the great vessels of the heart
  • Recognize structures contributing to the heart’s electrical conductivity

Lesson 2: Structure of Cardiovascular PCS Codes

  • Identify the section of PCS where cardiac catheterization codes are located
  • Utilize your knowledge of vascular anatomy to choose the correct body part for certain procedures
  • Match cardiovascular devices to their respective PCS device value

Lesson 3: Procedures on the Heart and Great Vessels

  • Select the body part and qualifier values for coronary bypass procedures
  • Assign codes for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty
  • Determine the number of codes needed to report pacemaker and implantable cardioverter defibrillator procedures
  • Match different types of contrast material to their corresponding PCS values

One Device—but How Many PCS Codes? Watch this course preview to learn how the generator, lead locations, device type, and chamber configuration determine the number of ICD-10-PCS codes required for pacemaker and AICD procedures.

Top dog!
Doggone good!
It was OK.
It was a bit RUFF.
Bad to the bone.

I really did enjoy the class. I learned a lot, but there seems to be a lot more to learn.

Felt a little more explanation of PCS codes needed. Example: Ventriculogram and angiography. Definitely not a beginner course.
