I13.0 — Hypertensive heart and chronic kidney disease with heart failure and stage 1 through stage 4 chronic kidney disease, or unspecified chronic kidney disease
I13.0 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for hypertensive heart and chronic kidney disease with heart failure and stage 1 through stage 4 chronic kidney disease, or unspecified chronic kidney disease. It is valid for submission on a claim.
Other codes that can never be billed with I13.0
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at I13.0. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading I13.0 alone.
Risk adjustment
I13.0 risk-adjusts. Under the CMS-HCC V28 model it maps to this category:
- HCC 226 Heart Failure, Except End Stage and Acute0.360 RAF
Coefficient shown for the Community Non-dual Aged segment. A higher HCC in the same hierarchy will suppress this one, so capturing it does not always add score.
