Note: A physician can perform ICD surgeries at more than one hospital, and thus some hospitals without an assigned ICD capable physician will have a count for ICD surgeries. The letters A-M represent the ICD capable physician assigned to that hospital. SB: South Bend, IN. Hospitals with between 1 and 10 ICD procedures are not reportable to protect patient confidentiality.
