ICD-Code I50.9 is a billable ICD-10 code used for healthcare diagnosis reimbursement of Heart Failure, Unspecified. Its corresponding ICD-9 code is 428.0

Billable: Yes

ICD-9 Code Transition: 428.0

Code I50.9 is the diagnosis code used for Heart Failure, Unspecified. It is a disorder characterized by the inability of the heart to pump blood at an adequate volume to meet tissue metabolic requirements. Heart failure can be caused by structural defects, functional abnormalities (ventricular dysfunction), or a sudden overload beyond its capacity.

General ICD-10 Information

ICD (International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health problems) is now on its 10th revision. ICD-10 codes are the byproduct of that revision. This medical classification list is generated by the World Health Organization (WHO), and is used to help healthcare providers identify and code health conditions.

ICD-10 is required for use by physicians and healthcare providers under the Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act (HIPAA) and will replace all ICD-9 code sets.

Many more new diagnoses can be tracked using ICD-10 than with ICD-9. Some expanded code sets, like ICD-10-CM, have over 70,000 codes.

How do you code a CHF exacerbation?

Assign code I50. 9, heart failure NOS for a diagnosis of congestive heart failure. “Exacerbated” or “Decompensated” heart failure – Coding guidelines advise that “exacerbation” and “decompensation” indicate an acute flare-up of a chronic condition.

What is a CHF exacerbation?

What is CHF exacerbation? CHF exacerbation occurs when there is an increase in or worsening of heart failure symptoms. Heart failure happens when your heart is unable to pump enough blood throughout your body.

What does diagnosis code 150.9 mean?

ICD-9 code 150.9 for Malignant neoplasm of esophagus unspecified site is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range -MALIGNANT NEOPLASM OF DIGESTIVE ORGANS AND PERITONEUM (150-159).
