      Thank you for your inquiry regarding CMS996: Appropriate Treatment for ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) Patients in the Emergency Department (ED). CMS and the measure developer can consider adding HCPCS code C9606 to the Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (OID: 2.16.840.1.113883.3.3157.2000.5) value set in a future Annual Update.

    • For pci, C9606 is not on the Value set and will need to be added

      For OP STEMI, Coding uses C9606 for the procedure on patients that are Admitted as Observation.  C9600, C9602, C9604 and C9607 are accepted but coding only uses C9606. 

       

      Can C9606 be added to the Value set to be picked up as the procedure code?
