ICD-10-CM Code for Diastolic (congestive) heart failure I50.3 ICD-10 code I50.3 for Diastolic (congestive) heart failure is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
When you go to your index under "Dysfunction" you dont have a term for systolic or diastolic but you do have a term for heart. Going dysfunction>heart guides you to code I51.89 Other ill-defined heart disease. Hope this provides a better idea.
Our coder looked it up on ICD10Data.com and on I51.9 Heart Disease, unspecified under similar conditions is diastolic dysfunction. Our coder insists that we are undercoding if we don't put I51.9 in.
I50.3 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I50.3 became effective on October 1, 2021.
When the muscles of the heart become stiff, they can't relax properly, creating a condition known as diastolic dysfunction. This inflexibility prevents the heart's ventricles from filling completely, causing blood to back up in the organs.

Abnormalities in diastolic function can occur in the presence or absence of a clinical syndrome of heart failure and with normal or abnormal systolic function. Therefore, whereas diastolic dysfunction describes an abnormal mechanical property, diastolic heart failure describes a clinical syndrome.
Diastolic dysfunction was diagnosed according to the echocardiographic examination results and categorized into 3 grades based on 2009 version of recommendations, that is, grade 1 (mild diastolic dysfunction or impaired relaxation phase: E/A <0.8, DT >200 milliseconds, E/e′ ≤8), grade 2 (moderate diastolic dysfunction ...
Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction occurs when the left lower chamber of the heart (the left ventricle) has trouble relaxing in between beats because it has stiffened over time. It interferes slightly with the heart's most important job—getting oxygen-rich blood to the rest of the body.
Grade II – This diastolic dysfunction is characterized by increased filling pressure in the atrium and is considered to be moderate stage disease. The left atrium may also increase in size due to the increased pressure.
According to the current guidelines (DD2016) and for patients with preserved ejection fraction, one should evaluate four variables to assess diastolic dysfunction: e′, E/e′ ratio, LAVI, and TRpV.
Chronic hypertension is the most common cause of diastolic dysfunction and failure. It leads to left ventricular hypertrophy and increased connective tissue content, both of which decrease cardiac compliance.
