ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I22 Subsequent ST elevation (STEMI) and non-ST elevation (NSTEMI) myocardial infarction
Code I21.4, Non‐ST elevation (NSTEMI) myocardial infarction, is used for non‐ST elevation MI and nontransmural MIs. If NSTEMI evolves to STEMI, assign the STEMI code. If STEMI converts to NSTEMI due to thrombolytic therapy, it is still coded as STEMI.
A disorder characterized by gross necrosis of the myocardium; this is due to an interruption of blood supply to the area. Coagulation of blood in any of the coronary vessels. The presence of a blood clot (thrombus) often leads to myocardial infarction.
infarction of heart, myocardium, or ventricle myocardial infarction specified as acute or with a stated duration of 4 weeks (28 days) or less from onset
ICD-10 code I25. 2 for Old myocardial infarction is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
9.
First, in order to have a subsequent MI, there must first be an acute MI that has occurred in the preceding 28 days (not 30 days). Second, codes from category I22 should ONLY be applied if both the initial and subsequent MIs are type 1 MIs (coronary involvement, NSTEMI/STEMI) or unspecified.
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.
BA41. Z Acute myocardial infarction, unspecified - ICD-11 MMS.
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.
Subsequent non-ST elevation (NSTEMI) myocardial infarction I22. 2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I22. 2 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Inferior wall myocardial infarction (MI) occurs from a coronary artery occlusion with resultant decreased perfusion to that region of the myocardium. Unless there is timely treatment, this results in myocardial ischemia followed by infarction.
For example, Z12. 31 (Encounter for screening mammogram for malignant neoplasm of breast) is the correct code to use when you are ordering a routine mammogram for a patient. However, coders are coming across many routine mammogram orders that use Z12.
History of codes is acceptable on any medical record regardless of the reason for visit. ❖ Myocardial Infarction (MI) o Acute Myocardial Infarction: A new MI is considered acute from onset up to 4 weeks post MI.

The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I21.A9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
A code also note instructs that 2 codes may be required to fully describe a condition but the sequencing of the two codes is discretionary, depending on the severity of the conditions and the reason for the encounter.
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.
