I02.0 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for rheumatic chorea with heart involvement. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2026 (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026) and groups to MS-DRG 314 through 316. As a secondary diagnosis, it counts as a complication or comorbidity (CC) and moves an inpatient stay to a higher severity level within its MS-DRG family. It does not count, however, when the principal diagnosis is one of 46 closely related codes. Coders also document this condition as autoimmune movement disorder. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Acute rheumatic heart disease and Endocarditis and endocardial disease.
