92960 Wont Fly for Emergency Defibrillation : Cardioversion - AAPC Defibrillation, the use of an electric shock to restart or normalize heart rhythms, is always an emergency procedure, says Granovsky The patient who receives this service has no pulse and is typically in ventricular fibrillation, or VF The ICD-9 VF code is 427 41 (Ventricular fibrillation), and the ICD-10 code is I49 01 (Ventricular
Wiki - Defibrillator | Medical Billing and Coding Forum - AAPC Defibrillation is the delivery of an electrical impulse to the heart This impulse is intended to interrupt life-threatening abnormal rhythms (eg, ventricular fibrillation, pleiomorphic ventricular tachycardia or ventricular tachycardia associated with shock) and allow the normal sinus impulse and electrical conduction to resume
Administration of Emergent Shock Shouldnt Be Billed Alone - AAPC The article contrasts elective cardioversion only with emergent defibrillation and doesnt mention emergent cardioversion In addition, part of the description of the elective cardioversion procedure if the patient is hemodynamically unstable actually describes emergency cardioversion

Wiki - should i bill 92950 or 92960 - AAPC Defibrillation may be performed as part of critical care services, at the end of open heart surgery, during cardiac catheterization and coronary angiography, or during an electrophysiological procedure Defibrillation is often a component of cardiac resuscitation, especially in adults
Wearable Cardioverter-Defibrillators - AAPC A wearable cardioverter-defibrillator is an automatic external defibrillator which monitors and treats a patient for ventricular defibrillation The device is intended to be worn in home or in hospital settings as prescribed and overseen by a physician
