The ICD Code for elevated blood pressure is R03.0 and it is billable and needed for diagnosis and treatment of this condition. It is therefore important that you gain an understanding of the code.
Stroke, heart attacks, and heart failure are all risks related to elevated blood pressure. To lead a better life and live above the risks, you need to lose excess weight, exercise more, and eat well.
Forget the complicated grammar, elevated blood pressure is a medical term for when your blood rises a bit higher than normal. This condition is likely to result in high blood pressure, better known as hypertension. (To avoid hypertension, you need to make a few changes to your lifestyle when diagnosed with elevated pressure.

This probably conflicts with general layman knowledge but there’s an explanation. Older adults have already crossed into the region of hypertension, they are not likely to ever suffer from elevated blood pressure. This leaves young adults and obese children at risk.
Blood pressure is the force of your blood pushing against the walls of your arteries. Each time your heart beats, it pumps out blood into the arteries. Your blood pressure is highest when your heart beats, pumping the blood. This is called systolic pressure. When your heart is at rest, between beats, your blood pressure falls. This is the diastolic pressure. Your blood pressure reading uses these two numbers, the systolic and diastolic pressures. Usually they are written one above or before the other. A reading of#N#120/80 or lower is normal blood pressure#N#140/90 or higher is high blood pressure#N#between 120 and 139 for the top number, or between 80 and 89 for the bottom number is prehypertension#N#high blood pressure usually has no symptoms, but it can cause serious problems such as stroke, heart failure, heart attack and kidney failure. You can control high blood pressure through healthy lifestyle habits and taking medicines, if needed. 1 120/80 or lower is normal blood pressure 2 140/90 or higher is high blood pressure 3 between 120 and 139 for the top number, or between 80 and 89 for the bottom number is prehypertension

ICD Code 110 is a billable ICD-10-CM code that will be used to specify a diagnosis in relation to essential (primary) hypertension. ICD-10 codes 010, 011 and 013-016 in this case will be used to specify any hypertension complication affecting childbirth pregnancy and puerperium. Essential hypertension affecting vessels supplying the brain with blood will be represented by ICD-10 codes 160-169. Essential hypertension affecting vessels supplying the eye with blood on the other hand will be represented by the ICD-10 codes H35.0
ICD Code I12.0 in ICD-10 codes will be used to indicate hypertensive chronic kidney disease with stage 5 chronic kidney disease or end stage for renal disease. I12.9 on its part will represent Hypertensive chronic kidney disease with stage 1 through to stage 4.
One is considered to suffer from hypertension if his systolic pressure stands at more than 140mmHG while the diastolic pressure clocks a high of 90mmHg and more. Hypertension causes the heart to work harder to pump blood to the entire body which most of the time result in left sided heart failure.
The center for disease Control and prevention puts the number of Americans who suffer from hypertension at 67 million translating to 31% of all adults. It is estimated that more women than men suffer from Hypertensive condition with a high prevalence in people above the ages of 65.
There are two main types of hypertension, primary hypertension which has been known to grow gradually with time. The other one is known as secondary hypertension. Both types of hypertension are known to considerably hurt the arteries acting as a major cause for strokes, heart attacks, kidney failure and blindness.
ICD-10-CM officially replaces ICD-9-CM on October 1 2014, therefore, Medical Billers or Medical coders can use 2014 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes for only training or planning purposes until then.

Essential hypertension, also known as arterial, benign, idiopathic, primary, or malignant hypertension, has no known or identified cause and is reported with code I10 as long as there are no associated and/or related causal relationships (e.g, heart disease).
Blood pressure is measured using a sphygmomanometer (blood pressure cuff with an attached gauge) and a stethoscope. Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and documented as systolic over diastolic (e.g., 120/80 mmHg). Both systolic and diastolic pressures can indicate hypertension independently or together. The following table identifies five types of systolic and diastolic blood pressure readings and what they indicate.
Hypertension Definitions . Blood pressure is the measurement of blood pressing on the blood vessel walls when the heart contracts, pushing blood through the arteries (systolic pressure) and when the heart is at rest between heart contractions when it is refilling with oxygenated blood (diastolic pressure).
There are many factors that can contribute to or cause high blood pressure and hypertension (e.g., tobacco use or exposure, obesity, stress, pregnancy) and several ICD-10-CM code categories to report them. Documentation is important for code selection in identifying these additional factors.
The COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE) has made it interesting and challenging for organizations to keep an eye on the evolving changes to the ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting. Have you been keeping up with these changes?
The guidelines also state that “For hypertension and conditions not specifically linked by relational terms such as “with,” “associated with” or “due to” in the classification, provider documentation must link the conditions in order to code them as related.”
