Old myocardial infarction. I25.2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Acute myocardial infarction, unspecified 1 I21.9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. 2 The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM I21.9 became effective on October 1, 2018. 3 This is the American ICD-10-CM version of I21.9 - other international versions of ICD-10 I21.9 may differ.
Code 410.9x, Myocardial infarction of unspecified site, should only be assigned when there is no documentation specifying the location. Although not a reliable diagnostic tool, the ECG report is a reliable source of information regarding the AMI site.
Code 410.7x, Subendocardial infarction or nontransmural infarction, identifies subendocardial infarctions that do not extend through the full thickness of the myocardial wall ( ICD-9-CM Coding Handbook, Faye Brown, 2004, page 255). Code 410.7x also includes non-ST elevation MI (NSTEMI).

ICD-10 code I21. A1 for Myocardial infarction type 2 is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
2: Old myocardial infarction.
Acute myocardial infarction, also known as a heart attack, is a life-threatening condition that occurs when blood flow to the heart muscle is abruptly cut off, causing tissue damage.
ICD-10 Code for Myocardial Infarction (Type 2) Type 2 MI (whether a new initial or subsequent) is assigned to one code (I21. A1). The code also includes any description of MI due to 'demand ischemia' or 'ischemic imbalance.

An acute MI should be reported for up to 4 weeks (28 days) with a code from category I21. Encounters for care related to the MI after the 4‐week timeframe should be coded with the appropriate aftercare code. An old or healed MI, not requiring further care, should be coded as I25. 2, Old Myocardial Infarction.
ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) coronary spasm, or unstable angina.
To report AMI, refer to the following code categories: o Subsequent Myocardial Infarction: Acute myocardial infarction occurring within four weeks (28 days) of a previous acute myocardial infarction, regardless of site. o Old Myocardial Infarction: Reported for any myocardial infarction described as older than four ...
Myocardial ischemia occurs when blood flow to the heart muscle (myocardium) is obstructed by a partial or complete blockage of a coronary artery by a buildup of plaques (atherosclerosis). If the plaques rupture, you can have a heart attack (myocardial infarction).
Type 2 myocardial infarction (MI) is defined by a rise and fall of cardiac biomarkers and evidence of ischemia without unstable coronary artery disease (CAD), due to a mismatch in myocardial oxygen supply and demand. Myocardial injury is similar but does not meet clinical criteria for MI.
(NSTEMI) is a common diagnosis in hospitalized patients. Type 2 has been reported up to 25% of cases of MI depending on the population studied. Type 2 NSTEMI is defined as myocardial ischemia resulting from mismatched myocardial oxygen supply and demand that is not related to unstable coronary artery disease (CAD).
I25. 6 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
To report AMI, refer to the following code categories: o Subsequent Myocardial Infarction: Acute myocardial infarction occurring within four weeks (28 days) of a previous acute myocardial infarction, regardless of site. o Old Myocardial Infarction: Reported for any myocardial infarction described as older than four ...
Ischemic heart disease is chest pain or discomfort that recurs when part of the heart muscle does not receive enough blood. “Ischemic” means a body part is not getting enough blood flow and, thus, oxygen. Plaque buildup on the walls of the coronary arteries causes ischemic heart disease.
ICD-Code I25* is a non-billable ICD-10 code used for healthcare diagnosis reimbursement of Chronic Ischemic Heart Disease. Its corresponding ICD-9 code is 429.2. Code I25* is the diagnosis code used for Chronic Ischemic Heart Disease, also known as Coronary artery disease (CAD).

Codes. I21 Acute myocardial infarction.
A disorder characterized by gross necrosis of the myocardium; this is due to an interruption of blood supply to the area.
A blockage that is not treated within a few hours causes the affected heart muscle to die. Gross necrosis of the myocardium, as a result of interruption of the blood supply to the area, as in coronary thrombosis. Gross necrosis of the myocardium, as a result of interruption of the blood supply to the area.
A type 2 excludes note represents "not included here". A type 2 excludes note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition it is excluded from but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When a type 2 excludes note appears under a code it is acceptable to use both the code ( I21) and the excluded code together.
In most cases the manifestation codes will have in the code title, "in diseases classified elsewhere.". Codes with this title are a component of the etiology/manifestation convention. The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code.
Discharge diagnosis: malignant pleural effusion, PNET to the left femur and right lung.
Code R56.9 is appropriate for this encounter. "Probable" conditions are not coded in the outpatient setting.
The child was admitted with a fever and lethargy. The admitting diagnosis was rule out sepsis. When admit it, he was responsive but lethargic. The physical examination was within normal limits except for the left ear drops which was red and period he was placed on intravenous antibiotics and her full set of work up was complete. Improvement was evident for the next day, when he was alert, active, and started out feedings. He became a free trial and was discharged on oral antibiotics for all otitis media, with sepsis ruled out.

The conventions for the ICD-10-CM are the general rules for use of the classification independent of the guidelines. These conventions are incorporated within the Alphabetic Index and Tabular List of the ICD-10-CM as instructional notes.
When assigning a chapter 15 code for sepsis complicating abortion, pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium, a code for the specific type of infection should be assigned as an additional diagnosis. If severe sepsis is present, a code from subcategory R65.2, Severe sepsis, and code(s) for associated organ dysfunction(s) should also be assigned as additional diagnoses.
More than one external cause code is required to fully describe the external cause of an illness or injury. The assignment of external cause codes should be sequenced in the following priority:
Code assignment is based on the provider’s documentation of the relationship between the condition and the care or procedure, unless otherwise instructed by the classification. The guideline extends to any complications of care, regardless of the chapter the code is located in. It is important to note that not all conditions that occur during or following medical care or surgery are classified as complications. There must be a cause-and-effect relationship between the care provided and the condition, and an indication in the documentation that it is a complication. Query the provider for clarification, if the complication is not clearly documented.
The word “with” or “in” should be interpreted to mean “associated with” or “due to” when it appears in a code title, the Alphabetic Index (either under a main term or subterm), or an instructional note in the Tabular List. The classification presumes a causal relationship between the two conditions linked by these terms in the Alphabetic Index or Tabular List. These conditions should be coded as related even in the absence of provider documentation explicitly linking them, unless the documentation clearly states the conditions are unrelated or when another guideline exists that specifically requires a documented linkage between two conditions (e.g., sepsis guideline for “acute organ dysfunction that is not clearly associated with the sepsis”).For conditions not specifically linked by these relational terms in the classification or when a guideline requires that a linkage between two conditions be explicitly documented, provider documentation must link the conditions in order to code them as related.
code from subcategory O9A.2, Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes complicating pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium, should be sequenced first, followed by the appropriate injury, poisoning, toxic effect, adverse effect or underdosing code, and then the additional code(s) that specifies the condition caused by the poisoning, toxic effect, adverse effect or underdosing.
Do not code diagnoses documented as “probable”, “suspected,” “questionable,” “rule out ,” or “working diagnosis” or other similar terms indicating uncertainty. Rather, code the condition(s) to the highest degree of certainty for that encounter/visit, such as symptoms, signs, abnormal test results, or other reason for the visit.
Code 410.9x, Myocardial infarction of unspecified site, should only be assigned when there is no documentation specifying the location. Although not a reliable diagnostic tool, the ECG report is a reliable source of information regarding the AMI site. If a diagnostic report (eg, ECG), provides specificity to a confirmed diagnosis (MI), it is appropriate to assign the more specific code ( AHA Coding Clinic for ICD-9-CM, 1999, first quarter, page 5).
Myocardial infarction (MI) is the death of myocardial tissue usually caused by a blocked coronary artery. Acute MI (AMI) is classified to ICD-9-CM category 410 , with a fourth and fifth digit needed to completely code the condition.
A fifth digit of 1 indicates the first time the patient was seen and treated for MI and may be used at the first hospital where the patient received treatment and at other acute care hospitals to which the patient is subsequently transferred (without interim discharge). For example, if a patient was admitted to Hospital A for AMI and then transferred to Hospital B for a cardiac bypass, code 410.x1 would be assigned as the principal diagnosis for both acute care hospital stays. If the patient was then readmitted to Hospital A for recovery without being discharged home, code 410.x1 could still be assigned as the principal diagnosis.
If no additional clarification can be obtained, assign code 411.89 for acute demand ischemia. This is unofficial advice, since there is no direction provided in AHA Coding Clinic for ICD-9-CM. Please note that to assign code 411.89, the physician must state that it is an acute condition, and it must be related to the coronary arteries.
A fifth digit of 2 is assigned when a patient is admitted for subsequent care of an MI after the initial care but within eight weeks of the initial MI. Assign code 414.8 if the MI is described as chronic or lasts for eight weeks or longer.
Sometimes, the MI extends to the same site while in house for the original MI. In that case, it is not considered an extension, since it was at the same site during the same admission. However, if it extended to a different location during the same admission, then assign an additional code from category 410 with a fifth digit of 1 to show the new site to which it extended ( Coding Clinic, 1993, fifth issue, pages 13-14.)
