It is the responsibility of the provider to code to the high- est level specified in the ICD-9-CM (e.g. to the fourth or fifth digit). The correct use of an ICD-9-CM code listed below does not assure coverage of a service.

CMS Limitations Guide - Cardiovascular Services

Starting July 1, 2008, CMS has placed numerous medi-

cal necessity limits on tests and procedures. This refer-

ence guide provides you with all of the latest changes.

This guide is not an all-inclusive list of National Coverage

Documents (NCD) and Local Coverage Documents (LCD).

Please consult the CMS website for additional information

at cms.hhs.gov/mcd/search.asp?clickon=search. You can

search by LCD or NCD or keyword and region.

CMS will deny payment if the correct diagnosis codes are

not entered on the order form, and your patient’s test or

procedure will not be covered. We compiled this informa-

tion in one location to make it easier for you to find the

proper codes for medically necessary diagnoses.

It is the responsibility of the provider to code to the high-

est level specified in the ICD-9-CM (e.g. to the fourth or

fifth digit). The correct use of an ICD-9-CM code listed

below does not assure coverage of a service. The service

must be reasonable and necessary in the specific case and

must meet the criteria specified in this determination.

We will continue to update this list as new CMS limitations

are announced. You can always find the most current list

on mymunson.org.

If you have any questions, please contact Kari Smith,

Office Coordinator, at (231) 935-2296, or Karen Popa,

Director, Patient Access Services, at (231) 935-7493.
