Code Classification

  • Diseases of the circulatory system
    (I00–I99)
    • Diseases of arteries, arterioles and capillaries
      (I70-I79)
      • Arterial embolism and thrombosis
        (I74)

I74 is a non-specific and non-billable diagnosis code code, consider using a code with a higher level of specificity for a diagnosis of arterial embolism and thrombosis. The code is not specific and is NOT valid for the year 2024 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions. Category or Header define the heading of a category of codes that may be further subdivided by the use of 4th, 5th, 6th or 7th characters.

Specific Coding Applicable to Arterial embolism and thrombosis

Non-specific codes like I74 require more digits to indicate the appropriate level of specificity. Consider using any of the following ICD-10-CM codes with a higher level of specificity when coding for arterial embolism and thrombosis:

  • I74.0 for Embolism and thrombosis of abdominal aorta - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I74.01 for Saddle embolus of abdominal aorta - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I74.09 for Other arterial embolism and thrombosis of abdominal aorta - BILLABLE CODE

  • I74.1 for Embolism and thrombosis of other and unspecified parts of aorta - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I74.10 for Embolism and thrombosis of unspecified parts of aorta - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I74.11 for Embolism and thrombosis of thoracic aorta - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I74.19 for Embolism and thrombosis of other parts of aorta - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I74.2 for Embolism and thrombosis of arteries of the upper extremities - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I74.3 for Embolism and thrombosis of arteries of the lower extremities - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I74.4 for Embolism and thrombosis of arteries of extremities, unspecified - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I74.5 for Embolism and thrombosis of iliac artery - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I74.8 for Embolism and thrombosis of other arteries - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I74.9 for Embolism and thrombosis of unspecified artery - BILLABLE CODE

Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries

The following annotation back-references are applicable to this diagnosis code. The Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries is a list of ICD-10-CM codes, organized "head to toe" into chapters and sections with coding notes and guidance for inclusions, exclusions, descriptions and more.


Includes

Includes
This note appears immediately under a three character code title to further define, or give examples of, the content of the category.
  • embolic infarction
  • embolic occlusion
  • thrombotic infarction
  • thrombotic occlusion

Code First

Code First
Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. For such conditions, the ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists, there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes, etiology followed by manifestation.
  • embolism and thrombosis complicating abortion or ectopic or molar pregnancy O00 O07 O08.2
  • embolism and thrombosis complicating pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium O88

Type 2 Excludes

Type 2 Excludes
A type 2 excludes note represents "Not included here". An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code, but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code, it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate.
  • atheroembolism I75
  • basilar embolism and thrombosis I63.0 I63.2 I65.1
  • carotid embolism and thrombosis I63.0 I63.2 I65.2
  • cerebral embolism and thrombosis I63.3 I63.5 I66
  • coronary embolism and thrombosis I21 I25
  • mesenteric embolism and thrombosis K55.0
  • ophthalmic embolism and thrombosis H34
  • precerebral embolism and thrombosis NOS I63.0 I63.2 I65.9
  • pulmonary embolism and thrombosis I26
  • renal embolism and thrombosis N28.0
  • retinal embolism and thrombosis H34
  • septic embolism and thrombosis I76
  • vertebral embolism and thrombosis I63.0 I63.2 I65.0
