Cardiomyopathies are classified according to their predominant pathophysiological features (dilated cardiomyopathy; hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; restrictive cardiomyopathy) or their etiological/pathological factors (cardiomyopathy, alcoholic; endocardial fibroelastosis). Cardiomyopathy refers to diseases of the heart muscle.

Cardiomyopathy is a progressive disease of the heart muscle with no known etiology. The condition makes it difficult for the heart to pump blood throughout the body. Although it may develop secondarily to a disease elsewhere in the body, such as coronary artery disease or valvular heart disease, the underlying cause may never be identified.
Similary for nonischemic cardiomyopathy icd 10 code, when you search in index column it will lead to unspecified code. Hence, most of the coder are using unspecified code I42. 9, for nonischemic cardiomyopathy.
Hi Good evening I am working in HCC we use ICD 10 code for nonischemic cardiomyopathy is I42. 9.
Nonischemic cardiomyopathy is defined as disease of the myocardium associated with mechanical or electrical dysfunction exhibiting inappropriate ventricular hypertrophy or dilatation. The causes are numerous, but an increasing number of nonischemic disorders are being recognized as genetic in cause.
Dilated cardiomyopathy, also sometimes referred to as dilated, non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, is a type of heart muscle disease that causes the left ventricle of the heart to stretch abnormally. This prevents your heart from pumping blood effectively.
I42. 9 - Cardiomyopathy, unspecified | ICD-10-CM.
When a patient presents with CHF and cardiomyopathy, treatment is typically focused on managing CHF. Therefore, sequence a code from category 428, Heart failure, as the principal diagnosis with code 425.4 added as a secondary diagnosis (AHA Coding Clinic for ICD-9-CM, 1990, second quarter, page 19).
Ischemic cardiomyopathy is most common. It occurs when the heart is damaged from heart attacks due to coronary artery disease. Non-ischemic cardiomyopathy is less common. It includes types of cardiomyopathy that are not related to coronary artery disease.
Medical Definition of nonischemic : not marked by or resulting from ischemia nonischemic tissue.
Nonischemic heart failure is any form of heart failure that is not caused by blockages in the heart arteries.
Cardiomyopathy is a serious condition. Without treatment, it can be life-threatening. Cardiomyopathy is also a progressive condition, meaning it usually worsens over time.
The term 'non-ischemic heart failure' includes various subgroups such as hypertensive heart disease, myocarditis, alcoholic cardiomyopathy and cardiac dysfunction due to rapid atrial fibrillation. Some of these causes are reversible.
Cardiac muscle dysfunction resulting in heart failure can be reversed with appropriate diagnosis and therapy in nearly 25%8211;50% of all nonischemic cardiomyopathies.
There are three types of cardiomyopathy: • Dilated cardiomyopathy (ICD-9-CM code 425.4) is the most common type in which the left ventricle becomes enlarged and can no longer pump blood throughout the body. This type generally occurs in middle-aged people.

Although it may develop secondarily to a disease elsewhere in the body, such as coronary artery disease or valvular heart disease, the underlying cause may never be identified. Cardiomyopathy may lead to heart failure, blood clots, a heart murmur, and cardiac arrest.
