The following references for the code I50.9 are found in the index:
You might need an ICD if the rhythm of your heart's lower chambers, called the ventricles, is dangerously abnormal. You might also need one if you've had a heart attack or cardiac arrest, which is when your heart stops working. An ICD could save your life if your abnormal heart rhythm becomes life-threatening.
In both ICD-9 and ICD-10, signs/symptoms and unspecified codes are acceptable and may even be necessary. In some cases, there may not be enough information to describe the patient's condition or no other code is available to use. Although you should report specific diagnosis codes when they are supported by the available documentation and clinical knowledge of the patient's health condition, in some cases, signs/symptoms or unspecified codes are the best choice to accurately reflect the ...

When the provider has linked either diastolic or systolic dysfunction with acute or chronic heart failure, it should be coded as 'acute/chronic diastolic or systolic heart failure. ' If there is no provider documentation linking the two conditions, assign code I50. 9, Heart failure, unspecified.”

When searching for an ICD-10 code for CHF, we start by looking under Failure/Heart to arrive at the unspecified code of I50. 9 Heart Failure, unspecified.
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 .
Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction is sometimes referred to as diastolic failure or heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). People with Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction have evidence of abnormal diastolic function and may or may not have symptoms.

Left ventricular failure, unspecified The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I50. 1 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of I50.
Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. For such conditions, ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation.
Approximate Synonyms.

Clinical symptoms of heart failure include: unusual dyspnea on light exertion, recurrent dyspnea occurring in the supine position, fluid retention or rales, jugular venous distension, pulmonary edema on physical exam, or pulmonary edema on chest x-ray presumed to be cardiac dysfunction.
Signs and symptoms include shortness of breath, pitting edema, enlarged tender liver, engorged neck veins, and pulmonary rales.
A heterogeneous condition in which the heart is unable to pump out sufficient blood to meet the metabolic need of the body. Heart failure can be caused by structural defects, functional abnormalities (ventricular dysfunction), or a sudden overload beyond its capacity. Chronic heart failure is more common than acute heart failure which results from sudden insult to cardiac function, such as myocardial infarction.
Heart failure accompanied by edema, such as swelling of the legs and ankles and congestion in the lungs.

ICD Code I50 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the five child codes of I50 that describes the diagnosis 'heart failure' in more detail. I50 Heart failure. NON-BILLABLE. BILLABLE.
Heart failure due to hypertension with chronic kidney disease See code I13.-
I50. Non-Billable means the code is not sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis. Use a child code to capture more detail. ICD Code I50 is a non-billable code.
Specialty: Cardiology. MeSH Code: D006333.
Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is a sudden worsening of the signs and symptoms of heart failure, which typically includes difficulty breathing (dyspnea), leg or feet swelling, and fatigue. ADHF is a common and potentially serious cause of acute respiratory distress. The condition is caused by severe congestion ...
Symptoms, Tests and Diagnosis. There may be one or multiple symptoms like shortness of breath, leg edema, fatigue, rapid heartbeat or chest pain. Doctor will verify the patient’s medical history as conditions like CAD, angina, hypertension, heart valve diseases and diabetes are risk factors for heart failure.
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. 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 pres erved ejection fraction.
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 of heart failure with or without the word “congestive”.
Additional code for heart failure should also be coded. The word “congestive” is not mandatory when coding heart failure.
Decompensated or compensated heart failure should be coded as specific type as to systolic or diastolic, chronic or acute.
Clinical symptoms of heart failure include: unusual dyspnea on light exertion, recurrent dyspnea occurring in the supine position, fluid retention or rales, jugular venous distension, pulmonary edema on physical exam, or pulmonary edema on chest x-ray presumed to be cardiac dysfunction.
Signs and symptoms include shortness of breath, pitting edema, enlarged tender liver, engorged neck veins, and pulmonary rales.
