CMSSource: CMS FY 2027 ICD-10-CM dataset · Effective Oct 1, 2026 – Sep 30, 2027

I72.8 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for aneurysm of other specified arteries. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2027 (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) and groups to MS-DRG 299 through 301. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Aortic; peripheral; and visceral artery aneurysms.

I72.8 no longer risk-adjusts for Medicare Advantage: it mapped to HCC 108 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 108, ESRD (V21) category 108, and ESRD (V24) category 108 for payment year 2027.

Patient EducationClinical

Aneurysms

An aneurysm is a bulge or "ballooning" in the wall of an artery. Arteries are blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart to other parts of the body. If an aneurysm grows large, it can burst and cause dangerous bleeding or even death.

Questions About I72.8Overview

What is the ICD-10 code for aneurysm of other specified arteries?

The ICD-10-CM code for aneurysm of other specified arteries is I72.8 (sometimes written as I728). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Is I72.8 (Other aneurysm) a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report aneurysm of other specified arteries on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

What MS-DRG does I72.8 group to?

When aneurysm of other specified arteries is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 301, 300, 299, with relative weights from 0.7132 to 1.5840 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of I72.8?

Under the General Equivalence Mappings, aneurysm of other specified arteries converts to ICD-9-CM 442.82 (subclavian aneurysm), 442.83 (splenic artery aneurysm), and 442.89 (aneurysm NEC). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.

Does I72.8 risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?

Not for Medicare Advantage. I72.8 mapped to HCC 108 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 108 (Vascular Disease), ESRD (V21) category 108 (Vascular Disease), and ESRD (V24) category 108 (Vascular Disease).
