ICD Code M46 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the eight child codes of M46 that describes the diagnosis 'other inflammatory spondylopathies' in more detail.

The ICD code M46 is used to code Spondyloarthropathy

Spondyloarthropathy or spondyloarthrosis refers to any joint disease of the vertebral column. As such, it is a class or category of diseases rather than a single, specific entity. It differs from spondylopathy, which is a disease of the vertebra itself. However, many conditions involve both spondylopathy and spondyloarthropathy.
