  • tachycardia NOS (R00.0)
  • sinoauricular tachycardia NOS (R00.0)
  • sinus [sinusal] tachycardia NOS (R00.0)

Other codes that can never be billed with I47.10

Risk adjustment

I47.10 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.

Medicare coverage

I47.10 is named in 17 Medicare coverage policies 17 listing it as supporting medical necessity. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
