ICD Code C85 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the four child codes of C85 that describes the diagnosis 'oth and unspecified types of non-hodgkin lymphoma' in more detail.

The ICD code C85 is used to code Tumors of the hematopoietic and lymphoid tissues

Tumors of the hematopoietic and lymphoid tissues or haematopoietic and lymphoid malignancies are tumors that affect the blood, bone marrow, lymph, and lymphatic system. As those elements are all intimately connected through both the circulatory system and the immune system, a disease affecting one will often affect the others as well, making myeloproliferation and lymphoproliferation (and thus the leukemias and the lymphomas) closely related and often overlapping problems.
