Inclusion terms

Alternative wordings a physician may use in the chart for this same code.

Atherosclerosis of internal mammary artery graft with angina pectoris

Excludes1 inherited from the categories above I25.72

These are not written on I25.72, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing I25.72 with anything listed here is a denial.

Written on I25.7 — Atherosclerosis of coronary artery bypass graft(s) and coronary artery of transplanted heart with angina pectoris

atherosclerosis of bypass graft(s) of transplanted heart without angina pectoris (I25.812)
atherosclerosis of coronary artery bypass graft(s) without angina pectoris (I25.810)
atherosclerosis of native coronary artery of transplanted heart without angina pectoris (I25.811)

Excludes2 inherited from the categories above I25.72

Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of I25.72, but a patient can have both, so you may code both.

Written on I25 — Chronic ischemic heart disease

non-ischemic myocardial injury (I5A)

Risk adjustment

I25.72 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.

I25.72 has not changed since FY2024 — no addition, revision or deletion across the three most recent ICD-10-CM releases.
