I44

Atrioventricular and left bundle-branch block

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 8 more specific codes instead:

  • I44.0 Atrioventricular block, first degree
  • I44.1 Atrioventricular block, second degree
  • I44.2 Atrioventricular block, complete
  • I44.3 Other and unspecified atrioventricular block (also a header)
  • I44.4 Left anterior fascicular block
  • I44.5 Left posterior fascicular block
  • I44.6 Other and unspecified fascicular block (also a header)
  • I44.7 Left bundle-branch block, 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.
