Question

Hospital A: The patient is admitted for chest pain and is found to have an acute inferior myocardial infarction with atrial fibrillation. After the atrial fibrillation was controlled and the patient was stabilized, the patient was transferred to Hospital B for a CABG X3. The appropriate sequencing and ICD codes for both hospitalizations would be:

-414.01Coronary atherosclerosis of native coronary artery
-410.41Acute myocardial infarction of other inferior wall, initial episode of care
-410.42Acute myocardial infarction of other inferior wall, subsequent episode of care
-410.91Acute myocardial infarction of unspecified site, initial episode of care
-410.92Acute myocardial infarction of unspecified site, subsequent episode of care
-427.31Atrial fibrillation
-786.50Chest pain, unspecified
-36.13Aortocoronary bypass of three coronary arteries

Answer 1

The appropriate sequencing and ICD codes for both hospitalizations are provided. The patient had an acute inferior myocardial infarction with atrial fibrillation in Hospital A and was transferred to Hospital B for a CABG X3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropriate sequencing and ICD codes for both hospitalizations would be:

1. -414.01 Coronary atherosclerosis of native coronary artery
2. -410.41 Acute myocardial infarction of other inferior wall, initial episode of care
3. -410.42 Acute myocardial infarction of other inferior wall, subsequent episode of care
4. -410.91 Acute myocardial infarction of unspecified site, initial episode of care
5. -410.92 Acute myocardial infarction of unspecified site, subsequent episode of care
6. -427.31 Atrial fibrillation
7. -786.50 Chest pain, unspecified
8. -36.13 Aortocoronary bypass of three coronary arteries

The patient in Hospital A was admitted for chest pain and was found to have an acute inferior myocardial infarction with atrial fibrillation. Once the atrial fibrillation was controlled and the patient was stabilized, they were transferred to Hospital B for a CABG X3 (aortocoronary bypass of three coronary arteries).
