What This Code Means

I74.1 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for embolism and thrombosis of other and unspecified parts of aorta. I74.1 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the circulatory system (i00-i99), within the section covering diseases of arteries, arterioles and capillaries (i70-i79).

Header codes like I74.1 cannot be reported on claims directly; they organize child codes that share clinical context. Coders should select the billable child code that matches the documented presentation and then verify its current source-backed HCC mapping. Do not infer a child code or risk adjustment value from the header alone.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for I74.1 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
