Hypertensive Heart Disease With Heart Failure
When the left ventricle stops working efficiently:
What Are the Symptoms?

ICD-10-CM Code for Acute on chronic systolic (congestive) heart failure I50. 23.
Acute on chronic systolic (congestive) heart failure I50. 23 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I50. 23 became effective on October 1, 2021.
ICD-10 code I50. 42 for Chronic combined systolic (congestive) and diastolic (congestive) heart failure is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
Acute on chronic combined systolic (congestive) and diastolic (congestive) heart failure. I50. 43 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
It happens when your heart is weak or enlarged. During systolic heart failure, the muscle in your left ventricle is unable to contract or shorten. This prevents blood from being pumped effectively out to your body.
When heart failure becomes severe enough to cause symptoms requiring immediate medical treatment, it is called decompensated heart failure (DHF). On the other hand, if you have heart failure but your heart is still functioning well enough that you don't have symptoms, you have compensated heart failure.
ICD-10-CM Code for Chronic respiratory failure, unspecified whether with hypoxia or hypercapnia J96. 10.
9 – Heart Failure, Unspecified. Code I50. 9 is the diagnosis code used for Heart Failure, Unspecified.
CHF is most common in men and risk factors include age, high blood pressure, being overweight and the presence of metabolic disorders like diabetes. CHF is as its name describes - it is a long-term condition that can get worse over time. It generally cannot be cured but it can be medically managed.
ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 150.9 : Malignant neoplasm of esophagus, unspecified site.
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) is a chronic heart condition in which the heart is unable to pump enough blood. It does not indicate that the heart has stopped working completely, instead the efficiency of heart has become less. Terms Heart failure and CHF are used interchangeably. Hence coder needs to code to the highest specific type ...
The types are based on which part of the heart is affected. Left sided heart failure : This is the most common type of heart failure found in medical record. It is related to the pumping of blood by left ventricle. This can be either Systolic or Diastolic.
Right sided heart failure : It is related to the pumping of blood by right ventricle. Biventricular heart failure : This is a type of heart failure in which ventricles of both the sides are unable to pump enough blood.
Additional code for heart failure should also be coded. The word “congestive” is not mandatory when coding heart failure.
This can be either Systolic or Diastolic. Systolic – It is also called HFrEF which means heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Diastolic – Another term for this is HFpEF which means heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Right sided heart failure : It is related to the pumping of blood by right ventricle.
