About coding hypertrophic nonobstructive cardiomyopathy

The ICD-10-CM code for hypertrophic nonobstructive cardiomyopathy is I42.2 (Other hypertrophic cardiomyopathy). The official index lists 2 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on I42.2.

Within I42, choose I42.2 (Other hypertrophic cardiomyopathy) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: dilated cardiomyopathy (I42.0), obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (I42.1), Endomyocardial (eosinophilic) disease (I42.3), endocardial fibroelastosis (I42.4), other restrictive cardiomyopathy (I42.5), alcoholic cardiomyopathy (I42.6), due to drug and external agent (I42.7), other cardiomyopathies (I42.8) and 1 more.

Code first: pre-existing cardiomyopathy complicating pregnancy and puerperium (O99.4).

As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.
