About coding peripheral angiopathia
The ICD-10-CM code for peripheral angiopathia is I73.9 (Peripheral vascular disease, unspecified). The official index lists 1 more specific code, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on I73.9.
Within I73, choose I73.9 (Peripheral vascular disease, unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: Raynaud's syndrome (I73.0), Thromboangiitis obliterans [Buerger's disease] (I73.1) and other specified peripheral vascular diseases (I73.8).
Don't report I73.9 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: atherosclerosis of the extremities (I70.2--I70.7-).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
