I25.708
BillableAtherosclerosis of coronary artery bypass graft(s), unspecified, with other forms of angina pectoris
HCC Category Mapping
What This Code Means
Plaque narrowing in coronary artery bypass grafts causing chest pain of a type other than unstable, spasm-related, or refractory angina.
Coding Tips
- •Use this code when documentation describes angina types not captured by codes .700, .701, or .702
- •Ensure the specific angina type is documented to justify use of this 'other forms' category
Clinical Significance
This code captures atherosclerosis of coronary artery bypass grafts with angina types not classified as unstable, vasospastic, or refractory. This may include stable exertional angina, nocturnal angina, or other atypical anginal presentations occurring in patients with bypass graft disease. It ensures that the anginal component is captured alongside the graft disease.
Documentation Requirements
- ✓Documentation of atherosclerosis in coronary artery bypass graft(s)
- ✓History of prior coronary artery bypass graft surgery
- ✓Description of the specific angina type that does not fit unstable, vasospastic, or refractory categories
- ✓Clinical characteristics of the anginal episodes
- ✓Bypass graft type if known
- ✓Treatment plan
Excludes 1 — Do NOT code together
- other forms of angina pectoris without atherosclerosis of coronary artery bypass graft (I20.8-)
