C95.0 — Acute leukemia of unspecified cell type
Is C95.0 billable?
No — C95.0 is a non-billable header code. C95.0 groups more specific codes and cannot be submitted on a claim. A valid ICD-10-CM code must be reported at the highest level of specificity available in its branch. Select one of the 3 billable codes beneath C95.0.

Excludes1 — never code together
The conditions below can never be reported together with C95.0 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- acute exacerbation of unspecified chronic leukemia (C95.10)
Inclusion terms
Alternative wording in documentation that is classified to C95.0.
- Acute bilineal leukemia
- Acute mixed lineage leukemia
- Biphenotypic acute leukemia
- Stem cell leukemia of unclear lineage
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from C95
The conditions below can never be reported together with C95.0 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- personal history of leukemia (Z85.6)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from C81-C96
The conditions below are not part of C95.0, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, C95.0 and the excluded code may both be reported.
