I24

Other acute ischemic heart diseases

Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

A category header for its whole life, FY2016 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 4 more specific codes instead:

  • I24.0 Acute coronary thrombosis not resulting in myocardial infarction
  • I24.1 Dressler's syndrome
  • I24.8 Other forms of acute ischemic heart disease (also a header)
  • I24.9 Acute ischemic heart disease, unspecified

What has happened to this code

Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.
