ICD-10-CM Code Q24.8
Other specified congenital malformations of heart
Billable Code
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.POA Exempt Code
The Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) requires medical coders to indicate whether or not a condition was present at the time of admission, in order to properly assign MS-DRG codes. This "Present On Admission" (POA) indicator is recorded on CMS form 4010A.Q24.8 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of other specified congenital malformations of heart. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
POA Indicators on CMS form 4010A are as follows:
Indicator | Meaning | CMS Will Pay CC/MCC DRG Costs |
---|---|---|
Y | Diagnosis was present at time of inpatient admission | Yes |
N | Diagnosis was not present at time of inpatient admission | No |
U | Documentation insufficient to determine if the condition was present at the time of inpatient admission. | No |
W | Clinically undetermined. Provider unable to clinically determine whether the condition was present at the time of inpatient admission. | Yes |
1 | Exempt from POA reporting | No |
The ICD code Q248 is used to code Ectopia cordis
Ectopia cordis (Greek: "away/out of place" + Latin: "heart") is a congenital malformation in which the heart is abnormally located either partially or totally outside of the thorax. The ectopic heart can be found along a spectrum of anatomical locations, including the neck, chest, or abdomen. In most cases, the heart protrudes outside the chest through a split sternum.

Equivalent ICD-9 Codes GENERAL EQUIVALENCE MAPPINGS (GEM)
This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code Q24.8 and a single ICD9 code, 746.89 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
