ICD-10-CM Code Q93
Monosomies and deletions from the autosomes, not elsewhere classified

NON-BILLABLE
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-10 from 2011 - 2016

ICD Code Q93 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the nine child codes of Q93 that describes the diagnosis 'monosomies and deletions from the autosomes, nec' in more detail.


The ICD code Q93 is used to code 22q13 deletion syndrome

22q13 deletion syndrome (spoken as twenty-two q one three) is a genetic disorder caused by deletions or rearrangements on the q terminal end (long arm) of chromosome 22. Any abnormal genetic variation in the q13 region that presents with significant manifestations (phenotype) typical of a terminal deletion should be diagnosed as 22q13 deletion syndrome. 22q13 deletion syndrome is often placed in the more general category of Phelan-McDermid Syndrome (abbreviated PMS), which includes some mutations and microdeletions. The PMS name is less precise, since there is disagreement among researchers as to which variants belong in the PMS category. The Developmental Synaptopathies Consortium defines PMS as being caused by SHANK3 mutations, a definition that excludes terminal deletions. This latter definition of PMS is incompatible with the defintion of 22q13 deletion syndrome by those who first described 22q13 deletion syndrome.
