Non-Billable Code
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 Code I70.2 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the eight child codes of I70.2 that describes the diagnosis 'atherosclerosis of native arteries of the extremities' in more detail.

The ICD code I702 is used to code Gangrene
Gangrene (or gangrenous necrosis) is a type of necrosis caused by a critically insufficient blood supply. This potentially life-threatening condition may occur after an injury or infection, or in people suffering from any chronic health problem affecting blood circulation. The primary cause of gangrene is reduced blood supply to the affected tissues, which results in cell death. Diabetes and long-term smoking increase the risk of suffering from gangrene.
