Buddy Documentation Tip

HCC Buddy guidance
Documentation of atherosclerotic coronary artery disease involving native vessels
Explicit documentation of coronary artery spasm (vasospastic or Prinzmetal's angina)
Objective evidence of spasm (transient ST elevation, angiographic spasm provocation testing)
Clinical presentation including timing and character of anginal episodes

MEAT Support

HCC Buddy guidance
Documentation of atherosclerotic coronary artery disease involving native vessels
Explicit documentation of coronary artery spasm (vasospastic or Prinzmetal's angina)
Objective evidence of spasm (transient ST elevation, angiographic spasm provocation testing)
Clinical presentation including timing and character of anginal episodes

Audit Caution

HCC Buddy guidance
Using I20.1 when coronary artery disease is also documented — use the combination code instead
Coding vasospastic angina without documented objective evidence of spasm
Confusing vasospastic angina with typical exertional angina that responds to rest
Assigning this code when beta-blocker use suggests typical angina rather than vasospastic

Common Mistakes

HCC Buddy guidance
I25.110 — Same condition with unstable angina: unstable angina without documented spasm
I20.1 — Angina pectoris with documented spasm: vasospastic angina without documented coronary artery disease
I25.118 — Same condition with other forms of angina: for angina types other than spasm, unstable, or refractory
I25.119 — Same condition with unspecified angina: when the angina type is not documented

Is I25.111 an HCC code?

I25.111 has no mapping under the current CMS-HCC V28 community payment model. I25.111 has a separate mapping under the CMS-HCC ESRD model (HCC 88 (Angina Pectoris)) and the Part D RxHCC model (HCC 188 (Coronary Artery Disease)); the applicable result needs member context.

What This Code Means

I25.111 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery with angina pectoris with documented spasm. Narrowing of heart arteries due to plaque buildup causing chest pain that is triggered by artery spasms and has been documented. I25.111 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the circulatory system (i00-i99), within the section covering ischemic heart diseases (i20-i25).

I25.111 has no mapping under the current CMS-HCC V28 community payment model. I25.111 has a separate mapping under the CMS-HCC ESRD model (HCC 88 (Angina Pectoris)) and the Part D RxHCC model (HCC 188 (Coronary Artery Disease)); the applicable result needs member context. Do not assign V28 risk adjustment value from this page; verify the applicable model and payment year before using this code for risk adjustment.

Native-artery CAD with angina pectoris and documented spasm. The provider must link coronary spasm to the angina, a positive provocation test, Prinzmetal-type description, or explicit 'vasospastic angina with CAD' statement in the assessment.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for I25.111 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

  • Native-artery CAD with angina pectoris and documented spasm. The provider must link coronary spasm to the angina, a positive provocation test, Prinzmetal-type description, or explicit 'vasospastic angina with CAD' statement in the assessment.
  • Do not use I25.111 for routine exertional angina, that is I25.118 or I25.119. The spasm descriptor is a specific clinical finding, not a catch-all for atypical chest pain.
  • Only unstable angina (I25.110) pulls native-vessel CAD into HCC 229; CAD with documented spasm, with other angina, or with unspecified angina (I25.111/118/119) carries no V28 coefficient.

Clinical Significance

This combination code captures atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary arteries with vasospastic (Prinzmetal's) angina. Vasospastic angina is caused by coronary artery spasm superimposed on atherosclerotic disease and can cause transient ST elevation and significant ischemia. The documented spasm distinction is clinically important because treatment differs from typical stable angina, often requiring calcium channel blockers and avoidance of beta-blockers.

Documentation Requirements

  • Documentation of atherosclerotic coronary artery disease involving native vessels
  • Explicit documentation of coronary artery spasm (vasospastic or Prinzmetal's angina)
  • Objective evidence of spasm (transient ST elevation, angiographic spasm provocation testing)
  • Clinical presentation including timing and character of anginal episodes
  • Treatment plan including calcium channel blockers and/or long-acting nitrates

Excludes 1, Do NOT code together

  • angina pectoris with documented spasm without atherosclerotic heart disease (I20.1)

Commonly Confused Codes

  • I25.110: Same condition with unstable angina: unstable angina without documented spasm
  • I20.1: Angina pectoris with documented spasm: vasospastic angina without documented coronary artery disease
  • I25.118: Same condition with other forms of angina: for angina types other than spasm, unstable, or refractory
  • I25.119: Same condition with unspecified angina: when the angina type is not documented
