How to code HASHD

We have a doctor that continually documents HASHD (hypertensive arteriosclerotic heart disease). I can find hypertensive Heart disease and arteriosclerotic heart disease but nothing that would capture the whole diagnosis. Anyone have any ideas as to how to code this?

I don't believe that there is a combination code for hypertensive arteriosclerotic heart disease and you would need to use two codes to capture this, one for the hypertensive heart disease and one for the arteriosclerosis. Hope this helps!
