ICD-10-CM assumes a causal relationship and this is coded as hypertensive heart disease with CHF and an additional code for the specific type of heart failure. In this case, the PDX of hypertensive heart disease with CHF (I11.0) is reported as the PDX followed by the code for the heart failure (I50.9) Under the Category I50 in the ICD-10-CM ...

Unspecified diastolic (congestive) heart failure
ICD-10 Code for Diastolic (congestive) heart failure- I50. 3- Codify by AAPC.
In systolic CHF, the ventricles cannot produce enough pressure in the contraction phase to push blood into circulation. On the other hand, in diastolic CHF, the ventricles cannot relax, expand, or fill with enough blood. Combined CHF is a combination of the two.
There is growing recognition that congestive heart failure (CHF) caused by a predominant abnormality in diastolic function (ie, diastolic heart failure) is both common and causes significant morbidity and mortality.
If you have systolic heart failure, it means your heart does not contract effectively with each heartbeat. If you have diastolic heart failure, it means your heart isn't able to relax normally between beats. Both types of left-sided heart failure can lead to right-sided heart failure.
It is not uncommon in chronic heart failure to have a combination of both systolic and diastolic dysfunction.
Overall, the changes in cardiac function associated with heart failure result in a decrease in cardiac output. This results from a decline in stroke volume that is due to systolic dysfunction, diastolic dysfunction, or a combination of the two.
ICD-10-CM Code for Systolic (congestive) heart failure I50. 2.
HFpEF is characterized by abnormal diastolic function: there is an increase in the stiffness of the left ventricle, which causes a decrease in left ventricular relaxation during diastole, with resultant increased pressure and/or impaired filling.
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), also called diastolic failure (or diastolic dysfunction): The left ventricle loses its ability to relax normally (because the muscle has become stiff). The heart can't properly fill with blood during the resting period between each beat.
Blood pressure is measured using two numbers: The first number, called systolic blood pressure, measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart beats. The second number, called diastolic blood pressure, measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart rests between beats.
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.”
HF can be classified into three groups based on the percentage of the ejection fraction (EF): heart failure with reduced EF (HFrEF), heart failure with mid-range—also called mildly reduced EF— (HFmrEF), and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
