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 5 more specific codes instead:

  • I27.0 Primary pulmonary hypertension
  • I27.1 Kyphoscoliotic heart disease
  • I27.2 Other secondary pulmonary hypertension (also a header)
  • I27.8 Other specified pulmonary heart diseases (also a header)
  • I27.9 Pulmonary 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.
