I47.10 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of supraventricular tachycardia, unspecified. The code is valid during the current fiscal year for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions from October 01, 2023 through September 30, 2024.

Unspecified diagnosis codes like I47.10 are acceptable when clinical information is unknown or not available about a particular condition. Although a more specific code is preferable, unspecified codes should be used when such codes most accurately reflect what is known about a patient's condition. Specific diagnosis codes should not be used if not supported by the patient's medical record.

Approximate Synonyms

The following clinical terms are approximate synonyms or lay terms that might be used to identify the correct diagnosis code:

EKG: supraventricular tachycardia
Nonsustained paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia
Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia
Supraventricular tachycardia
Supraventricular tachycardia following acute myocardial infarction
Supraventricular tachycardia with functional bundle branch block

I47.10 is grouped with Diagnostic Related Groups - MS-DRG Mapping

Diagnostic Related Groups (DRGs) are a classification system used to group together diagnosis codes for the purpose of reimbursement and healthcare management. DRGs are used to standardize the way hospitals and other providers are paid for inpatient services. In this system patients are grouped together based on their principal diagnosis in areas referred to as Major Diagnostic Categories (MDC). Once a patient is assigned a particular diagnostic category, providers receive a predetermined payment rate for the services rendered. This reimbursement rate is often fixed and is meant to cover the cost of care for that patient. Reimbursement is also affected by the relative weight of a diagnostic related group based on the severity of a patient's illness and the associated cost of care during hospitalization.

Diagnostic related groups encourage healthcare providers to focus on quality and efficiency in patient care while managing costs effectively. The diagnosis code is present in the following groups for version MS-DRG V41.0 applicable from 10/01/2023 through 09/30/2024.

MS-DRG	MS-DRG Title	MCD	Relative Weight
308	CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA AND CONDUCTION DISORDERS WITH MCC	05	1.2022
309	CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA AND CONDUCTION DISORDERS WITH CC	05	0.7447
310	CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA AND CONDUCTION DISORDERS WITHOUT CC/MCC	05	0.553

The relative weight of a diagnostic related group determines the reimbursement rate based on the severity of a patient's illness and the associated cost of care during hospitalization.
