Cardiac complications of anesthesia during the puerperium

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

Heart-related problems such as irregular heartbeat, heart attack, or cardiac arrest that occur as a direct result of anesthesia during the postpartum period.

Coding Tips

  • Specify the type of cardiac complication (arrhythmia, myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest) if documented
  • Ensure the cardiac event is directly attributed to anesthesia, not to other postpartum conditions
