Implant Of Heart Contractility Device Generator

South Carolina rates for HCPCS 0409T

The battery-powered generator of a cardiac contractility modulation system is implanted or replaced in a pocket under the skin of the upper chest. The system sends carefully timed electrical signals to the heart muscle during each beat to make its contraction stronger, which can ease heart failure symptoms; it does not set the heart's rhythm. Wires already running into the heart are connected to the generator.
