2027 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I25.112Atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery with refractory angina pectoris
ICD-10-CM Codes›I00–I99›I20-I25›I25
- Billable — Valid for Submission
- CC — Complication or Comorbidity
- Chronic Condition
I25.112 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery with refractory angina pectoris. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2027 (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) and groups to MS-DRG 302 through 303. 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 82 closely related codes. The code is restricted by the Medicare Code Editor to adult patients (age 15 through 124). Coders also document this condition as refractory angina. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Coronary atherosclerosis and other heart disease.
I25.112 no longer risk-adjusts for Medicare Advantage: it mapped to HCC 88 under the retired CMS-HCC V24 model through payment year 2025 but maps to no category in the live V28 model. It still risk-adjusts in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22) category 88, ESRD (V21) category 88, ESRD (V24) category 88, and RxHCC Part D (V08) category 188 for payment year 2027.

Angina
Angina is chest pain or discomfort you feel when there is not enough blood flow to your heart muscle. Your heart muscle needs the oxygen that the blood carries. Angina may feel like pressure or a squeezing pain in your chest. It may feel like indigestion. You may also feel pain in your shoulders, arms, neck, jaw, or back.

Questions About I25.112Overview
Is I25.112 a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery with refractory angina pectoris on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
What MS-DRG does I25.112 group to?
When atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery with refractory angina pectoris is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 302, 303, with relative weights from 0.6610 to 1.1993 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Is I25.112 a CC or MCC?
CMS lists I25.112 as a CC (complication or comorbidity) for FY 2027. Reported as a secondary diagnosis, it moves the inpatient stay to a higher-weighted DRG within its severity family. It does not count when the principal diagnosis is one of the 82 closely related codes in its exclusion list.
Who can I25.112 be reported for?
The Medicare Code Editor checks atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery with refractory angina pectoris against patient demographics: this code is intended for adult patients (age 15 through 124). Claims outside these limits are flagged as inconsistent.
Does I25.112 need an additional code?
When the condition applies, yes. The Use Additional Code note at I25.1, which applies to I25.112, reads: code, if applicable, to identify: coronary atherosclerosis due to calcified coronary lesion (I25.84); coronary atherosclerosis due to lipid rich plaque (I25.83). The additional code is reported after I25.112.
Does I25.112 risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?
Not for Medicare Advantage. I25.112 mapped to HCC 88 in the retired CMS-HCC V24 model, which last determined payment in 2025, but it maps to no category in the live V28 model; see all codes that no longer risk-adjust. It still risk-adjusts in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22) category 88 (Angina Pectoris), ESRD (V21) category 88 (Angina Pectoris), ESRD (V24) category 88 (Angina Pectoris), and RxHCC Part D (V08) category 188 (Coronary Artery Disease).
