About ICD-10-CM I25.710

ICD-10-CM code I25.710 represents Atherosclerosis of autologous vein coronary artery bypass graft(s) with unstable angina pectoris. This is a billable/specific code in the Circulatory System chapter (block I25). The 2026 edition of ICD-10-CM I25.710 became effective on October 1, 2025.

Coding Tips for I25.710

Specialist guidance from the PayerReady Medical Coding Team. Specificity warnings, HCC capture rules, sequencing notes.

HCC capture: document with MEAT each year

I25.710 is a CMS-HCC v28 risk-adjustment code (category 87). To count for the patient Risk Adjustment Factor (RAF), document the diagnosis with MEAT language each calendar year: Monitored, Evaluated, Assessed, Treated. A diagnosis on the problem list alone does not satisfy CMS RADV audit standards. Include the diagnosis in the assessment with current status and current treatment plan.

Inpatient DRG impact: CC

I25.710 is designated CC for MS-DRG grouping. On inpatient claims, this code can shift the DRG to the with-CC variant when documented as a present-on-admission secondary diagnosis. Hospital CDI programs flag CC opportunities during chart review. Failure to capture this code may leave 30 to 80 percent of the inpatient stay revenue unrealized.

Type 1 Excludes

Pure excludes, these codes can never be coded together with I25.710. The conditions are mutually exclusive (e.g., congenital vs acquired forms).

  • unstable angina without atherosclerosis of autologous vein coronary artery bypass graft(s) (I20.0)

Type 2 Excludes

Not included here, the excluded code is not part of I25.710, but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. Both codes may be coded together when applicable.

  • embolism or thrombus of coronary artery bypass graft(s) (T82.8-)

Inpatient DRG Impact, CC

codes Atherosclerosis of autologous vein coronary artery bypass graft(s) with unstable angina pectoris. As a Complication/Comorbidity (CC), this contributes to DRG severity adjustment when documented alongside the principal diagnosis.
