It is found in the 2020 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2019 - Sep 30, 2020.
Occlusion and stenosis of right carotid artery. I65.21 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Occlusion and stenosis of right carotid artery.
Report I65.22 for occlusion and stenosis of the left carotid artery. If a patient has carotid artery stenosis, your cardiologist may choose to place an intravascular stent in the carotid artery to treat the condition. When you report the codes for carotid artery stenting, you must know all the different rules.
Carotid artery disease is also called carotid artery stenosis. The term refers to the narrowing of the carotid arteries. This narrowing is usually caused by the buildup of fatty substances and cholesterol deposits, called plaque. Carotid artery occlusion refers to complete blockage of the artery.

A CCO was defined as a 100% occlusion of the contralateral internal carotid artery. The primary endpoint was a composite of in-hospital death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and nonfatal stroke.
ICD-10 code I65. 2 for Occlusion and stenosis of carotid artery is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
Abstract. A complete occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is an important cause of cerebrovascular disease. A never‐symptomatic ICA occlusion has a relatively benign course, whereas symptomatic occlusion increases future risk of strokes.
Carotid artery stenosis is a narrowing of the large arteries on either side of the neck. These arteries carry blood to the head, face, and brain. This narrowing is usually the result of a build-up of plaque within the arteries, a condition called atherosclerosis.
Both right and left common carotid arteries bifurcate in the neck at the level of the carotid sinus into the internal carotid artery (ICA), which supplies the brain, and the external carotid artery (ECA), which supplies the neck and face.[1] Course[edit | edit source] The carotid arteries originate posterior to the ...
With this update, as long as bilateral carotid artery disease is documented with occlusion and stenosis, code I65. 23 (Occlusion and stenosis of bilateral carotid arteries) should be used.
Neuroprotection System. TCAR is a patient friendly endovascular procedure that incorporates the neuroprotection principals of CEA. It utilizes a system that temporarily reverses blood flow away from the brain, collecting any potential debris in the device filter, before returning the blood to a vessel in the leg.
TCAR, which stands for transcarotid artery revascularization, uses a device from Silk Road Medical to briefly reverse the direction of blood flow. With blood (and any clots) flowing away from the brain while the physician operates, the patient's risk of stroke during the procedure is lower.
The TCAR procedure offers patients a safer method of carotid stenting through a small incision at the base of the neck and direct carotid artery access along with neuro-protective flow reversal during delivery of the stent.
I65.21 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Occlusion and stenosis of right carotid artery . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 .
DO NOT include the decimal point when electronically filing claims as it may be rejected. Some clearinghouses may remove it for you but to avoid having a rejected claim due to an invalid ICD-10 code, do not include the decimal point when submitting claims electronically.
Carotid stenosis is a narrowing or constriction of the inner surface (lumen) of the carotid artery, usually caused by atherosclerosis.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code I65.21 and a single ICD9 code, 433.10 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
