Most of the time an echogenic focus in Foetal heart is an inoccuous finding. It doesn't have much significance.
However if you are in a big city where some Specialist in Foetal medicine is available, you may take his opinion.

This report by m large looks normal except fr the echogenic focus
Advisable to repeat an echo at 24 weeks as at that gestational age fetal heart can be evaluated best
