Coverage indications
CMS has determined that two ICD-9-CM diagnosis codes: 786.50, Chest pain, unspecified and 786.51, Precordial pain, flow from the existing narrative for conditions for which a prothrombin time (PT) test is reasonable and necessary. Consequently, CMS will add these two ICD-9-CM diagnosis codes to the list of “ICD-9-CM Codes Covered by the Medicare Program” for the national coverage determination (NCD) for PT testing, as stated in Section 190.17 of the NCD Manual.
Codes in this policy
Code numbers and each code’s status as the policy records it. CPT code descriptions are left out of this page, as are the passages that cite CPT codes; the official document has them.
Backwork has no codes on record for this policy. Check the source.
