I95 is a non-billable ICD-10-CM category code for hypotension, so it cannot be submitted on claims. Use a more specific code from this category instead, such as I95.0, I95.1, I95.2, and I95.3.

Specific Coding for HypotensionOverview

Non-specific codes like I95 require more characters. Use one of these billable codes instead:

  • Use I95.0 for Idiopathic hypotension

  • Use I95.1 for Orthostatic hypotension

  • Use I95.2 for Hypotension due to drugs

  • Use I95.3 for Hypotension of hemodialysis

  • I95.8 for Other hypotension

  • Use I95.81 for Postprocedural hypotension

  • Use I95.89 for Other hypotension

  • Use I95.9 for Hypotension, unspecified

Type 1 Excludes

  • cardiovascular collapse R57.9
  • maternal hypotension syndrome O26.5
  • nonspecific low blood pressure reading NOS R03.1

Clinical InformationClinical

  • Hypotension

    abnormally low blood pressure that can result in inadequate blood flow to the brain and other vital organs. common symptom is dizziness but greater negative impacts on the body occur when there is prolonged depravation of oxygen and nutrients.

  • Hypotension, Controlled

    procedure in which arterial blood pressure is intentionally reduced in order to control blood loss during surgery. this procedure is performed either pharmacologically or by pre-surgical removal of blood.

  • Hypotension, Orthostatic

    a significant drop in blood pressure after assuming a standing position. orthostatic hypotension is a finding, and defined as a 20-mm hg decrease in systolic pressure or a 10-mm hg decrease in diastolic pressure 3 minutes after the person has risen from supine to standing. symptoms generally include dizziness, blurred vision, and syncope.

  • Intracranial Hypotension

    reduction of cerebrospinal fluid pressure characterized clinically by orthostatic headache and occasionally by an abducens nerve palsy; hearing loss; nausea; neck stiffness, and other symptoms. this condition may be spontaneous or secondary to cerebrospinal fluid leak; spinal puncture; neurosurgical procedures; dehydration; uremia; trauma (see also craniocerebral trauma); and other processes. chronic hypotension may be associated with subdural hematomas (see hematoma, subdural) or hygromas. (from semin neurol 1996 mar;16(1):5-10; adams et al., principles of neurology, 6th ed, pp637-8)

  • Ocular Hypotension

    abnormally low intraocular pressure often related to chronic inflammation (uveitis).

  • Post-Exercise Hypotension

    transient reduction in blood pressure levels immediately after exercises that lasts 2-12 hours. the reduction varies but is typically 5-20 mm hg when compared to pre-exercise levels. it exists both in normotensive and hypertensive individuals and may play a role in excercise related physiologic adaptation.

  • Shy-Drager Syndrome

    a progressive neurodegenerative condition of the central and autonomic nervous systems characterized by atrophy of the preganglionic lateral horn neurons of the thoracic spinal cord. this disease is generally considered a clinical variant of multiple system atrophy. affected individuals present in the fifth or sixth decade with orthostasis and bladder dysfunction; and later develop fecal incontinence; anhidrosis; ataxia; impotence; and alterations of tone suggestive of basal ganglia dysfunction. (from adams et al., principles of neurology, 6th ed, p536)

  • Adaptation, Physiological

    the non-genetic biological changes of an organism in response to challenges in its environment.

Patient EducationClinical

Low Blood Pressure

You've probably heard that high blood pressure is a problem. Sometimes blood pressure that is too low can also cause problems.

Questions About I95Overview

Is I95 (Hypotension) a billable code?

No. This is a category header that groups the codes for hypotension, and headers cannot be submitted on claims. Claims for hypotension need a more specific code from this category, such as I95.0, I95.1, and I95.2.
