I25.119 — Atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery with unspecified angina pectoris
Is I25.119 billable?
Yes, but I25.119 is an unspecified code. I25.119 is a valid, billable ICD-10-CM code for encounters from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. However, I25.119 is an unspecified or catch-all code. Payers apply additional scrutiny to unspecified codes and many deny them when the medical record supports a more specific option, so check the documentation before selecting I25.119 — the more specific alternatives are listed below.

- Arteriosclerosis, arteriosclerotic › coronary › native vessel › with › angina pectoris (diffuse) (obliterans) (of) (senile) (with calcification)
- Arteriosclerosis, arteriosclerotic › coronary › native vessel › with › ischemic chest pain (diffuse) (obliterans) (of) (senile) (with calcification)
Excludes1 — never code together
The conditions below can never be reported together with I25.119 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- unspecified angina pectoris without atherosclerotic heart disease (I20.9)
Inclusion terms
Alternative wording in documentation that is classified to I25.119.
- Atherosclerotic heart disease with angina NOS

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 9
The conditions below are not part of I25.119, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, I25.119 and the excluded code may both be reported.

- certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
- complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from I25
The conditions below are not part of I25.119, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, I25.119 and the excluded code may both be reported.
- non-ischemic myocardial injury (I5A)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from I25.1
The conditions below are not part of I25.119, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, I25.119 and the excluded code may both be reported.
Code also — inherited from I20-I25
Two codes may be needed to describe the condition fully. Whether I25.119 is sequenced first depends on the reason for the encounter.
- the presence of hypertension (I10-I1A)
How long has I25.119 existed?
I25.119 has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.
Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
