The only codes for NSTEMI are 410.70 (unspecified), 410.71 (initial episode of care) and 410.72 (subsequent episode of care). There is no ICD-9 code for specificity for Type 1 or Type 2 NSTEMI. There may be in ICD-10 but not now.
Aug 18, 2017 · Beginning FY2018 on October 1, 2017, a new code is available for MI Type 2 or MI due to demand ischemia I21.A1, Myocardial infarction type 2. In addition, other new codes are available for MI Types 3, 4a-c, and 5, I21.A9, Other myocardial infarction type. HIA offers three action plans on coding myocardial infarctions » References:

Oct 17, 2019 · When If a type 2 AMI code is described as NSTEMI or STEMI, only assign code I21.A1. Codes I21.01-I21.4 should only be assigned for type 1 AMIs. Acute myocardial infarctions type 3, 4a, 4b, 4c and 5 are assigned to code I21.A9, Other myocardial infarction type. The Effect of Proper Documentation

Type 2 NSTEMI is defined as myocardial ischemia resulting from mismatched myocardial oxygen supply and demand that is not related to unstable coronary artery disease (CAD).
Most NSTEMI (65%-90%) are type 1 MI. Patients with type 2 MI have multiple comorbidities and causes of in-hospital mortality among these patients are not always CV-related.Jan 10, 2020
A non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) is a type of heart attack that usually happens when your heart's need for oxygen can't be met. This condition gets its name because it doesn't have an easily identifiable electrical pattern (ST elevation) like the other main types of heart attacks.Dec 28, 2021

NSTEMI code I21. 4 should be reported for type 1 non ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and nontransmural MIs. A STEMI code should be reported both when STEMI converts to NSTEMI and when NSTEMI converts to STEMI. This rule applies to type 1 MIs.Nov 24, 2017
Type 1 myocardial infarction occurs in those with atherosclerotic plaque rupture and thrombosis, whereas type 2 myocardial infarction occurs due to myocardial oxygen supply and demand imbalance in the context of an acute illness causing tachyarrhythmia, hypoxia, or hypotension without acute atherothrombosis.Aug 25, 2021
Demand ischemia should be reserved for when there is evidence of supply-demand mismatch causing ischemia without an elevated troponin above the 99th percentile. If the troponin is > 99th percentile the diagnosis is a Type 2 MI.
Type 2 NSTEMI is a problematic term. According to coding guidelines, when Type 2 NSTEMI is documented, the code for Type 2 MI should be assigned and the code for NSTEMI should be withheld. If a coder incorrectly assigns the code for a NSTEMI – I21.4 – the case will be inappropriately pulled into the National Cardiovascular Data Registry ...
Evidence of imbalance between myocardial oxygen supply and demand causing acute myocardial ischemia (one of the criteria below):#N#Symptoms of myocardial ischemia (chest pain, etc.)#N#New ischemic ECG changes#N#Development of pathological Q waves#N#Imaging evidence of new loss of viable myocardium or new regional wall motion abnormality in a pattern consistent with an ischemic etiology 1 Symptoms of myocardial ischemia (chest pain, etc.) 2 New ischemic ECG changes 3 Development of pathological Q waves 4 Imaging evidence of new loss of viable myocardium or new regional wall motion abnormality in a pattern consistent with an ischemic etiology
Documentation and coding myocardial infarction is a common pain point for CDI departments, caused by conflicting or incomplete documentation that requires further clarification with a query. Type 2 MI is frequently incorrectly diagnosed and inconsistently documented.
