Inpatient Payment Groups (MS-DRG)

Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.

MS-DRGs this diagnosis helps define, as principal or secondary, per the CMS ICD-10-CM/PCS MS-DRG Definitions Manual v44, Appendix B.

  • MS-DRG 291 — HEART FAILURE AND SHOCK WITH MCC (MDC 05)
  • MS-DRG 292 — HEART FAILURE AND SHOCK WITH CC (MDC 05)
  • MS-DRG 293 — HEART FAILURE AND SHOCK WITHOUT CC/MCC (MDC 05)
  • MS-DRG 791 — PREMATURITY WITH MAJOR PROBLEMS (MDC 15)
  • MS-DRG 793 — FULL TERM NEONATE WITH MAJOR PROBLEMS (MDC 15)

A diagnosis appearing in a group's logic does not by itself determine the DRG assigned to a stay; the grouper uses the full claim.

Risk Adjustment (CMS-HCC)

Payment categories this diagnosis maps to under CMS-HCC V28, payment year 2026.

  • HCC 226 — Heart Failure, Except End-Stage and Acute (supersedes HCC 227)

Other models: CMS-HCC V22 HCC 85 · RxHCC V08 HCC 186

Risk scores depend on the enrollee's full accepted diagnosis set and segment; a category mapping alone does not determine payment.

Coder workflow for I50.32

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

Before you code I50.32

  1. Check the Excludes1 note: if the documentation supports a condition named there, do not simply proceed with I50.32. 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 I50.32’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.

    ReviewI50.4

  2. Is the underlying (etiologic) condition the Code First note names documented?
    Yes → Sequence the underlying condition first, then I50.32.
    No → Continue; do not add an underlying condition the record does not document.

    ReviewO08.8, I11.0, I13, I97.13, O75.4, I09.81

Consider I50.32. Then review the Code Also note, and 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).
Acuity
Acute or chronic as documented; when both are documented and separate codes exist, both are reported with the acute code first (Guidelines I.B.8).
The underlying (etiologic) condition
Named in the Code First note; sequenced before this code when documented (Guidelines I.A.13).

Official instructions as workflow

  • Excludes1 — check before selecting I50.32(1 note)

    Coding workflow: If the documentation supports a condition named in this note, do not simply proceed with I50.32: the two are not reported together. The one exception is when the record shows the two conditions are unrelated to each other.

    CompareI50.4

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

  • Excludes2 — not part of I50.32(2 notes)

    Coding workflow: The conditions named in this note are not included in I50.32. When the record documents both, both may be reported; the note is a boundary, not a prohibition.

    CompareI46, P29.0

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

  • Code First — sequencing check(6 notes)

    Coding workflow: Check whether the underlying or etiologic condition the note names is documented. When it is, sequence it before I50.32. Do not add an underlying condition the record does not document.

    ReviewO08.8, I11.0, I13, I97.13, O75.4, I09.81

    See the official tabular notes · Guidelines I.A.13

  • Code Also — related condition(1 note)

    Coding workflow: Review the related condition when both are documented and the instruction applies. A Code Also note does not fix sequencing; the order follows the circumstances of the encounter.

Coding decision scenarios

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

Documentation: Both the condition I50.32 describes and a condition named in its Excludes1 note are documented for the same encounter.

Coding question: Can both codes be reported?

Path: Review the Excludes1 note and the excluded code, and look for a provider statement on whether the two conditions are related.

Reason: Excludes1 means the two are not coded together; the exception is when the record shows the conditions are unrelated to each other (Guidelines I.A.12.a).

ReviewI50.4

Documentation: The underlying condition the Code First note names is documented alongside this condition.

Coding question: How are the two sequenced?

Path: Review the Code First note.

Reason: The underlying condition is sequenced first and the manifestation follows (Guidelines I.A.13).

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

The codes most likely to be picked instead of I50.32 — 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.

  • I50.4— 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 combined systolic (congestive) and diastolic (congestive) heart failure moves the case to I50.4; the two are not reported together unless documented as unrelated.

    Full comparison: I50.32 vs I50.4 →

  • I50.30— 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 “Unspecified diastolic (congestive) heart failure” takes I50.30; specificity in the record moves it back here.

    Full comparison: I50.32 vs I50.30 →

  • I46— Excludes2 relationship (Informational)

    Distinct conditions — both may be reported.

    A distinct condition — both may be reported when both are documented.

Code Overview

Chronic diastolic (congestive) heart failure is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code (I50.32).

MedCoder summary Summary composed by MedCoder from this code's official ICD-10-CM record. The tabular instructional notes themselves appear verbatim below.

Official Coding Guidelines

Official source data — quoted verbatim from the CMS/NCHS Official Guidelines

Verbatim excerpts from the ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting (CMS/NCHS) that govern this code.

Chapter 9: Diseases of the Circulatory System (I00 -I99)

1) Hypertension with Heart Disease Hypertension with heart conditions classified to I50.-, Heart failure, I51.4, Myocarditis, unspecified, I51.89, Other ill-defined heart diseases, and I51.9, Heart disease, unspecified, is assigned to a code from category I11, Hypertensive heart disease. Use additional code(s) from category I50, Heart failure, or I51, Complications and ill-defined descriptions of heart disease, to identify the heart condition.

Chapter 9: Diseases of the Circulatory System (I00 -I99)

The same heart conditions (I50.-, I51.4-I51.7, I51.89, I51.9) with hypertension are coded separately if the provider has documented they are unrelated to the hypertension. The applicable hypertension code I10, Essential (primary) hypertension, or a code from category I15, Secondary hypertension, should be assigned. Sequence according to the circumstances of the admission/encounter.

Chapter 9: Diseases of the Circulatory System (I00 -I99)

3) Hypertensive Heart and Chronic Kidney Disease The codes in category I13, Hypertensive heart and chronic kidney disease, are combination codes that include hypertension, heart disease and chronic kidney disease. Assign codes from combination category I13, Hypertensive heart and chronic kidney disease, when there is hypertension with both heart and chronic kidney disease. If heart failure is present, assign an additional code from category I50 to identify the type of heart failure.

Decision Points

The directives on this code's own record, as a pre-claim checklist.

  1. Sequencing: 6 Code First instructions — the underlying condition is sequenced before this code when present. See the Code First notes
  2. 1 Code Also note — a second code may apply; the guidelines leave its sequencing to the circumstances of the encounter. See the Code Also notes
  3. 1 Excludes1 entry — codes named there are generally not reported together with this code (Guidelines I.A.12.a). See the Excludes1 notes
  4. 2 Excludes2 entries — those conditions are not part of this code and may be reported additionally when documented. See the Excludes2 notes

Checklist rows are derived from this code's own official directives; the wording of each check is MedCoder editorial. The official notes themselves are in the sections each row links to.

Relationships & Classification

MedCoder-derived relationships — computed from published CMS and AHRQ datasets

Other codes that name I50.32 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 Excludes2 note: J91 — Pleural effusion in conditions classified elsewhere (via I50.-).

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

Referenced by 1 Code First instruction: I5A — Non-ischemic myocardial injury (non-traumatic) (via I50.-).

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 5 Use Additional Code instructions: I09.81 — Rheumatic heart failure (via I50.-), I11.0 — Hypertensive heart disease with heart failure (via I50.-), I13.0 — Hypertensive heart and chronic kidney disease with heart failure and stage 1 through stage 4 chronic kidney disease, or unspecified chronic kidney disease (via I50.-), I13.2 — Hypertensive heart and chronic kidney disease with heart failure and with stage 5 chronic kidney disease, or end stage renal disease (via I50.-), I97.13 — Postprocedural heart failure (via I50.-).

These codes instruct coders to additionally report this code when it applies.

Referenced by 4 Code Also instructions across 2 chapters: E83.820 — Generalized arterial calcification of infancy with unspecified genetic causality (via I50.-), E83.821 — ENPP1 deficiency causing generalized arterial calcification of infancy (via I50.-), E83.823 — ABCC6 deficiency causing generalized arterial calcification of infancy (via I50.-), I16.1 — Hypertensive emergency (via I50.-).

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

MS-DRG Grouper Relationships (FY2027)

Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.

FY2027 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 34 clinically related codes on its CMS exclusion list.

Named in the grouper logic of 5 MS-DRGs: DRG 291 (MDC 05), DRG 292 (MDC 05), DRG 293 (MDC 05), DRG 791 (MDC 15), DRG 793 (MDC 15).

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