ICD-10-CM Code For Congenital Malformations Of Aortic And Mitral Valves: Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) code group Q23 includes congenital malformations of the aortic and mitral valves such as valve stenosis, valve atresia, clefts, and other structural anomalies present at birth that impair valve function. These ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes are used to document congenital valvular defects that affect cardiac hemodynamics, surgical planning, and long-term management, capturing disease severity and organ involvement. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-CM Q23 group supports proper claim adjudication, complete clinical documentation, and appropriate reimbursement.
