hypertensive disease complicating pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium ( ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code O10. Pre-existing hypertension complicating pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium 2016 2017 2018 2019 Non-Billable/Non-Specific Code.
Short description: Elevated blood-pressure reading, w/o diagnosis of htn. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM R03.0 became effective on October 1, 2018. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of R03.0 - other international versions of ICD-10 R03.0 may differ.
"Includes" further defines, or give examples of, the content of the code or category. hypertension (arterial) (benign) (essential) (malignant) (primary) (systemic) A blood pressure of 140/90 or higher. High blood pressure usually has no symptoms.
According to the ICD-10-CM Official Coding Guidelines Section 1;C.9.a, a causal relationship is presumed between hypertension and heart involvement as well as hypertension and kidney involvement, even when the provider has not specifically linked the two conditions together in the documentation (unless they are specifically noted as “unrelated”).
ICD-10 uses only a single code for individuals who meet criteria for hypertension and do not have comorbid heart or kidney disease. That code is I10, Essential (primary) hypertension.
R03. 0: Elevated blood-pressure reading, without diagnosis of hypertension.
ICD-Code I10 is a billable ICD-10 code used for healthcare diagnosis reimbursement of Essential (Primary) Hypertension.
I16. 0 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I15 I15.
Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes such as renovascular disease, renal failure, pheochromocytoma, aldosteronism, or other causes of secondary hypertension or mendelian forms (monogenic) are not present.
Primary Hypertension (Formerly Known as Essential Hypertension) Essential (primary) hypertension occurs when you have abnormally high blood pressure that's not the result of a medical condition. This form of high blood pressure is often due to obesity, family history and an unhealthy diet.
2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code L10: Pemphigus.
The hypertensive urgency (I16. 0) code should be used when there is no presence of target organ damage, The hypertensive emergency (I16. 1) code should be used when there is presence of target organ damage.
Hypertension, Uncontrolled – It denotes to untreated hypertension/hypertension not responding to present therapeutic regimen. Appropriate code from categories I10-I15 is assigned.
Pulmonary Hypertension – Coded using category I27. While coding secondary pulmonary hypertension any associated conditions or adverse effect of drugs or toxins is also coded.
Systolic hypertension – Refers to the elevated systolic blood pressure. Gestational hypertension – High blood pressure in pregnancy. Hypertensive crisis- A severe increase in blood pressure that can lead to stroke. Hypertensive urgencies. Hypertensive emergencies.
Hypertensive cerebrovascular disease- Applicable code from I60-I69 is assigned first, trailed by the appropriate hypertension code.
Hypertension, transient– The code used is R03.0 ( Elevated blood pressure reading without diagnosis of hypertension). In case of transient hypertension in pregnancy, the codes used are from categories O13 and O14.
Secondary hypertension – Accounts for 5% of people with hypertension. Caused due to an underlying disease such as renal disorders such as chronic pyelonephritis, diabetic nephropathy etc.. and Vascular disorders such as coarctation of the aorta.
White-coat hypertension – High blood pressure that occurs at the doctor’s office or in a medical setting, but not otherwise is called White-coat hypertension. Generalized anxiety is one of the causes of white-coat hypertension.
Pathological increase in blood pressure; a repeatedly elevated blood pressure exceeding 140 over 90 mmhg.
High blood pressure usually has no symptoms. It can harm the arteries and cause an increase in the risk of stroke, heart attack, kidney failure, and blindness. A disorder characterized by a pathological increase in blood pressure; a repeatedly elevation in the blood pressure exceeding 140 over 90 mm hg.
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

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).
If the patient is pregnant, use the appropriate pregnancy codes (O13.- or O14.-) instead of code R03.0.
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.”
