Based on the guideline regarding hypertension with heart disease and the Tabular list, it appears that code I11.9, Hypertensive heart disease without heart failure, is appropriate since the provider has not indicated a different cause for the Takotsubo syndrome.

For ambulatory blood-pressure monitoring for 24 hours or longer, you would use codes 93784, 93786, 93788, or 93790. A diagnosis of hypertension (I10) does not affect a patient's risk-adjustment score.
You diagnose hypertension, order medications, and spend 10 minutes on the phone communicating with the patient about the diagnosis and plan of care. For ambulatory blood-pressure monitoring for 24 hours or longer, you would use codes 93784, 93786, 93788, or 93790.
ICD-10-CM Code for Takotsubo syndrome I51. 81.
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a temporary heart condition that develops in response to an intense emotional or physical experience. It's also known as stress cardiomyopathy or broken heart syndrome. In this condition, the heart's main pumping chamber changes shape, affecting the heart's ability to pump blood effectively.
I51. 81 - Takotsubo syndrome. ICD-10-CM.
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is generally a short-term (temporary) type of heart condition. It can be triggered by an intense emotional or physical stress. It causes sudden chest pain or shortness of breath.
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a type of disease of cardiac muscle (cardiomyopathy) that is characterized by dysfunction and ballooning of a portion of the left ventricle of the heart, most often its tip (apex).
While there is an on-going controversy whether the presence of coronary artery disease should be (re)introduced as a criterion for T2MI with recent data strongly in favour of this addition,2,3 there is unequivocal consensus that cardiac disorders with a pathophysiology different from supply demand mismatch including ...
The FY2019 guidelines align with Q2 2018 Coding Clinic guidance, which states that you should code for a patient with Takotsubo syndrome and hypertension using I51. 81 and I10 (Essential (primary) hypertension).
Broken heart syndrome, also known as stress cardiomyopathy or takotsubo syndrome, occurs when a person experiences sudden acute stress that can rapidly weaken the heart muscle.
Essential (primary) hypertension: I10 That code is I10, Essential (primary) hypertension. As in ICD-9, this code includes “high blood pressure” but does not include elevated blood pressure without a diagnosis of hypertension (that would be ICD-10 code R03. 0).
Broken heart syndrome, also called stress-induced cardiomyopathy or takotsubo cardiomyopathy, can strike even if you're healthy.
Abstract. Background: Takotsubo syndrome (TS) is an acute cardiac condition with presentation indistinguishable from acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and mechanism independent of epicardial coronary obstruction. Acute coronary artery plaque rupture/occlusion is not expected in TS.
The most common presenting symptoms of takotsubo cardiomyopathy are chest pain and dyspnea, although palpitations, nausea, vomiting, syncope and, rarely, cardiogenic shock have been reported.
Broken heart syndrome, also called stress-induced cardiomyopathy or takotsubo cardiomyopathy, can strike even if you're healthy. (Takotsubo are octopus traps that resemble the pot-like shape of the stricken heart.)
In stress cardiomyopathy, LV function returns to normal within a few weeks; however, several complications may occur before the systolic function recovers, and the in-hospital mortality is as high as 5%.
In general, a person can recover from takotsubo cardiomyopathy within one week to two months, but may need to receive advanced therapies and stay in the hospital under supervision until the heart heals. Your doctor may prescribe a drug or a combination of medications to help return your heart to its normal function.
The word 'takotsubo' comes from the name of a pot used by Japanese fishermen to trap octopuses. When the left ventricle of the heart changes shape, it develops a narrow neck and a round bottom making it looks similar to the octopus trap. It can develop at any age, but typically affects more women than men.
I51.81 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Takotsubo syndrome . 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 .
