Implanting Device to Boost Heart Contractions

The provider implants a cardiac contractility modulation (CCM) pulse generator, or removes and replaces a previously implanted device, in a pocket created in the right upper chest and attaches electrodes (wire leads that transmit electrical impulses) to the right ventricular septum and the atrium to increase the strength of the heart's contractions and treat moderate–to–severe congestive heart failure in a patient not controlled by optimal medical therapy. This code includes evaluating contractility, if performed, programming, and the generator. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries.
