I47.19 ICD-10-CM Code: Other supraventricular tachycardia

Coding instructions

Official Tabular Instructional Notes: the inclusion, exclusion and sequencing notes published for I47.19 in the official ICD-10-CM tabular list, quoted as published.

Source: CMS/CDC — ICD-10-CM Tabular ListRelease: FY2026Effective: October 1, 2025

Notes without a marker are published on I47.19 itself; “inherited from” names the category or block whose note applies here.

Coder workflow for I47.19

MedCoder structured workflow — derived from this code’s own official record

Before you code I47.19

1. “Other” (NEC) means the condition is specified in the record but no dedicated code captures it. Confirm the documented form is not one a sibling code names before settling on I47.19; if the record states no specifics at all, the unspecified sibling applies instead. “Other” codes are for documented conditions the classification gives no specific code; “unspecified” codes are for records lacking the detail (Guidelines I.A.9.a, I.A.9.b).

   ReviewI47.11

   See the relationships section · Guide: Other vs unspecified (NEC vs NOS) →

2. Check the Excludes1 note: if the documentation supports a condition named there, do not simply proceed with I47.19. Excludes1 conditions are not reported together with this code unless the record shows they are unrelated (Guidelines I.A.12.a).

   See the official tabular notes

Choose the right path

1. Does the documentation support a condition named in I47.19’s Excludes1 note?
   Yes → Do not simply proceed: review the excluded code. Both are reported only when the record shows the two conditions are unrelated.
   No → Continue.

   ReviewR00.0

2. Is the underlying (etiologic) condition the Code First note names documented?
   Yes → Sequence the underlying condition first, then I47.19.
   No → Continue; do not add an underlying condition the record does not document.

Consider I47.19. Then confirm the code is valid for the date of service in the Verify section.

Documentation check

The provider’s diagnostic statement

Codes are assigned from the provider’s documented diagnosis, not from clinical criteria, test values or a medication list (Guidelines I.A.19).

The underlying (etiologic) condition

Named in the Code First note; sequenced before this code when documented (Guidelines I.A.13).

Any detail beyond this code’s title

What the record states that a more specific sibling code would capture — or its absence, which itself supports the unspecified code.

Official instructions as workflow

• Excludes1 — check before selecting I47.19(3 notes)

  Coding workflow: If the documentation supports a condition named in this note, do not simply proceed with I47.19: the two are not reported together. The one exception is when the record shows the two conditions are unrelated to each other.

  CompareR00.0

  See the official tabular notes · Guidelines I.A.12.a

• Code First — sequencing check(3 notes)

  Coding workflow: Check whether the underlying or etiologic condition the note names is documented. When it is, sequence it before I47.19. Do not add an underlying condition the record does not document.

Coding decision scenarios

Pattern scenarios for this code’s structure — decision rules, not clinical cases

Every row is derived from this code’s own record — its title, tabular notes, 7th-character family and same-category siblings — with fixed MedCoder wording; nothing is inferred about a patient. The official notes and guideline text are in the sections each row links to, and they control.

Indexed Clinical Terms (16)

Official source data — entries quoted as published, in the Index’s own lookup phrasing

Clinical term phrases from the official ICD-10-CM Index to Diseases and Injuries that map to this code. These are alphabetic-index entries shown as the Index writes them — lookup phrasing, not necessarily the wording of a final diagnosis.

• AVNRT (atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia)
• AVRT (atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia)
• PAT (paroxysmal atrial tachycardia)
• Sinus, tachycardia, paroxysmal
• Tachycardia, atrial (paroxysmal)
• Tachycardia, auricular
• Tachycardia, AV nodal re-entry (re-entrant)
• Tachycardia, junctional (paroxysmal)
• Tachycardia, nodal (paroxysmal)

Don’t confuse I47.19 with…

MedCoder analysis — pairs from this code’s official notes, distinctions written by MedCoder

The codes most likely to be picked instead of I47.19 — named in its own official notes, or sharing its laterality or encounter family — with what separates them and which documentation moves the case. Each links to the full comparison.

• R00.0— Excludes1 conflict (Excludes1 — generally not reported together)

  Not coded here — the tabular list excludes this pair for the same encounter.

  Not reported together with this code, except where the two conditions are documented as unrelated.

  What moves you there: Documentation of tachycardia NOS moves the case to R00.0; the two are not reported together unless documented as unrelated.

  Full comparison: I47.19 vs R00.0 →

• I47.10— Specificity relationship (Review)

  Overlapping diagnoses in the same category.

  Overlapping codes in the same category — the documentation decides which is the more specific fit.

  What moves you there: A record that documents no more than “Supraventricular tachycardia, unspecified” takes I47.10; specificity in the record moves it back here.

  Full comparison: I47.19 vs I47.10 →

Relationships are read from this code's own official notes, its laterality siblings and its encounter family; the wording of each distinction is MedCoder editorial, and the documentation named in each “what moves you there” line is the official note phrase or sibling title itself.

Relationships & Classification

MedCoder structured relationships — computed from published CMS and AHRQ datasets

Other codes that name I47.19 or its code family, from the CMS ICD-10-CM tabular instructional notes. Tabular-note edges are stored at the code family level that carries each note.

Referenced by 1 Excludes1 note: R00.0 — Tachycardia, unspecified (via I47.-).

These codes’ tabular lists mark this diagnosis as mutually exclusive — not reported together unless the conditions are documented as unrelated.

Referenced by 1 Excludes2 note: R00 — Abnormalities of heart beat (via I47.-).

These codes’ tabular lists name this diagnosis as distinct — both may be reported when both are documented.

Referenced by 2 Code First instructions: I21.A1 — Myocardial infarction type 2, I5A — Non-ischemic myocardial injury (non-traumatic) (via I47.-).

Each of these codes carries a Code First note naming this condition — when that code is reported, THIS code is sequenced first, ahead of it.

Referenced by 1 Code Also instruction: M35.81 — Multisystem inflammatory syndrome (via I47.-).

These codes suggest coding this condition alongside when both are present.

MS-DRG Grouper Relationships (FY2026)

Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.

FY2026 MS-DRG: CC — Complication or Comorbidity. Reported as a secondary diagnosis, this code raises the stay's MS-DRG severity tier — except when the principal diagnosis is one of 51 clinically related codes on its CMS exclusion list.

Named in the grouper logic of 3 MS-DRGs: DRG 308 (MDC 05), DRG 309 (MDC 05), DRG 310 (MDC 05).

From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual (Appendices B and C). Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
