Non-Billable means the code is not sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis. Use a child code to capture more detail.
| ICD-10 from 2011 - 2016

Code Type-1 Excludes:
Type-1 Excludes
Type-1 Excludes mean the conditions excluded are mutually exclusive and should never be coded together. Excludes 1 means "do not code here."
Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of aryepiglottic fold or interarytenoid fold, laryngeal aspect - instead, use code D38.0
Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of epiglottis NOS - instead, use code D38.0
Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of skin of lip - instead, use code D48.5
Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of suprahyoid portion of epiglottis - instead, use code D38.0

Coding Advice SNOMET-CT

  • Possible requirement for morphology code
