I11.0 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for hypertensive heart disease with heart failure. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2026 (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026) and groups to MS-DRG 291 through 293, 791, 793. Coders also document this condition as benign hypertensive heart disease. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Heart failure and Hypertension with complications and secondary hypertension.
For Medicare Advantage risk adjustment, I11.0 maps to CMS-HCC Category 226 (Heart Failure, Except End Stage and Acute) under the V28 model, adding a risk factor of about 0.360 for a community, non-dual, aged beneficiary in payment year 2026.

Heart Failure
Heart failure means that your heart can't pump enough oxygen-rich blood to meet your body's needs. Heart failure doesn't mean that your heart has stopped or is about to stop beating. But without enough blood flow, your organs may not work well, which can cause serious problems.

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of I11.0?

What HCC is I11.0?
I11.0 (hypertensive heart disease with heart failure) maps to CMS-HCC Category 226 (Heart Failure, Except End Stage and Acute), commonly written as HCC 226, in the CMS-HCC V28 model used for Medicare Advantage risk adjustment in payment year 2026. It mapped to HCC 85 under the retired V24 model. It also maps in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22), ESRD (V21), and ESRD (V24) models. In the Part D prescription drug model it maps to RxHCC 186.
Does I11.0 risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?
Yes. When documented and reported on a Medicare Advantage encounter, I11.0 adds a risk adjustment factor of about 0.360 to the beneficiary's RAF score for a community, non-dual, aged enrollee (published V28 weights range from 0.217 to 0.537 depending on the payment segment). A more severe related category (HCC 221, HCC 222, HCC 223, HCC 224, and HCC 225) supersedes it when both are reported. See the full factor table on the HCC 226 category page.
