Intracardiac thrombosis, not elsewhere classified

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

A blood clot that forms inside the heart chambers, which can potentially break loose and travel to other parts of the body.

Coding Tips

  • •Determine if the thrombosis is associated with atrial fibrillation or recent myocardial infarction for additional coding
  • •Document the location of the clot (left ventricle, right ventricle, or atrium) when specified

Excludes 1 — Do NOT code together

  • intracardiac thrombosis as current complication following acute myocardial infarction (I23.6)
