What are the treatments for COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)?
The code I50.9 is valid during the fiscal year 2022 from October 01, 2021 through September 30, 2022 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions. The code is commonly used in cardiology medical specialties to specify clinical concepts such as heart failure.
Information for Patients
Heart failure is assumed to be due to hypertension when coded using I11. 0, “Hypertensive heart disease with heart failure.” In ICD-10, the word “with” presumes a causal relationship between the two conditions linked by this term.

The combination of hypertension and hypertensive heart disease is currently coded using the ICD-9 402. xx series of codes. As noted earlier, each category is currently divided into malignant, benign, and unspecified essential hypertension with or without heart failure.
What is hypertensive heart disease? Hypertensive heart disease is a long-term condition that develops over many years in people who have high blood pressure. It's a group of medical problems ― like heart failure and conduction arrhythmias ― that can happen when you don't control your high blood pressure (hypertension).

ICD-Code I10 is a billable ICD-10 code used for healthcare diagnosis reimbursement of Essential (Primary) Hypertension. Its corresponding ICD-9 code is 401.
Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a type of heart failure which requires seeking timely medical attention, although sometimes the two terms are used interchangeably. As blood flow out of the heart slows, blood returning to the heart through the veins backs up, causing congestion in the body's tissues.

If hypertension, heart failure and chronic kidney disease are all documented, use a combination code from category I13 — hypertensive heart and chronic kidney disease. These are just a few examples of conditions that have an assumed causal relationship in ICD-10-CM.
