Q27.8 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Short description: Oth congenital malformations of peripheral vascular system
The 2023 edition of ICD-10-CM Q27.8 became effective on October 1, 2022.
This is the American ICD-10-CM version of Q27.8 - other international versions of ICD-10 Q27.8 may differ.

Applicable To

Absence of peripheral vascular system
Atresia of peripheral vascular system
Congenital aneurysm (peripheral)
Congenital stricture, artery
Congenital varix

Type 1 Excludes

Type 1 Excludes Help

A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes. It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as Q27.8. A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.

Present On Admission

POA Help

"Present On Admission" is defined as present at the time the order for inpatient admission occurs — conditions that develop during an outpatient encounter, including emergency department, observation, or outpatient surgery, are considered POA.

Q27.8 is considered exempt from POA reporting.

ICD-10-CM Q27.8 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v40.0):

299 Peripheral vascular disorders with mcc
300 Peripheral vascular disorders with cc
