About I27
I27 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other pulmonary heart diseases. It belongs to block I26-I28 (pulmonary heart disease and diseases of pulmonary circulation) and chapter 9 (diseases of the circulatory system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 5 subcodes must be used instead.
To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: I27.0 (hypertension), I27.1 (disease), I27.2 (hypertension), I27.8 (diseases) and I27.9 (unspecified).
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
