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.
The Chronic Condition Indicator (CCI) for ICD-10-CM (beta version) is one in a family of databases and software tools developed as part of the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP), a Federal-State-Industry partnership sponsored by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). HCUP databases, tools, and software inform decision making at the national, State, and community levels.
The Chronic Condition Indicator for ICD-10-CM (beta version) facilitates health services research by allowing the researcher to readily identify a diagnosis as indicating a chronic condition. Prior to v2021.1 (beta version), the CCI distinguished chronic from non-chronic conditions. Starting in v2021.1 (beta version), the CCI tool was expanded to identify four types of conditions:
Examples include persistent asthma with ( acute) exacerbation, a cute on chronic heart failure, and kidney transplant rejection. Not applicable (code cannot be used to identify a chronic or acute condition) Examples include external cause of morbidity codes, injury sequela codes, and codes starting with the letter Z for screening or observation. ...
If a provider lists “HF” in the PMH section your institution utilizes, you may pick up I50.9, heart failure, unspecified, but there is no “chronic heart failure, unspecified” code, like there are type-specified HF, acuity-unspecified codes. If they were to document “chronic heart failure,” you just get I50.9.
Chronic conditions can be resource-intensive, so they may have an impact on the population health risk adjustment model when they have none on the inpatient model. Forty percent of HCCs are neither complications or comorbidities (CCs) nor major CCs (MCCs). (For the CMS-HCC model, go online to ...
However, sequelae of major head trauma and skull fractures are also nestled in HCC 167, Major Head Injury.
Although I73.9, peripheral vascular disease, unspecified lives in HCC 108, if what you really have is a patient with atherosclerosis of a leg with ulceration, you should really be in HCC 106 – which, according to the hierarchy, should yield a risk adjustment factor of 1.461 instead of 0.298. The provider should give the specificity of vessel and the linkage of symptoms or sequelae like claudication, rest pain, ulceration, or gangrene. Be sure to refer to the most up-to-date Disease Hierarchies – 106, Atherosclerosis of the Extremities with Ulceration or Gangrene, supersedes 107, 108, 161, and 189.
If a provider doesn’t mention the condition at all, but you note the patient is on meds for heart failure (HF), and prior admissions note HF, you can’t code it, but it should clue you in that the patient may have chronic HF. It needs to be documented in this encounter. You should query.
Providers don’t think of “past medical history” as being “history of,” in the coding sense. The latter, “personal history of,” lands a code in the Z85-87 subcategories, whereas chronic conditions are listed in the system-specific sections.
There is a disconnect among coders and clinicians regarding the concept of “chronic” conditions. All clinicians have interviewed a patient who denies any past medical history, but when confronted with their medication list, they will admit to having high blood pressure and high cholesterol. If controlled, the patients just don’t think of those conditions as being chronic.
