D82.9 — Immunodeficiency associated with major defect, unspecified
Is D82.9 billable?
Yes, but D82.9 is an unspecified code. D82.9 is a valid, billable ICD-10-CM code for encounters from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. However, D82.9 is an unspecified or catch-all code. Payers apply additional scrutiny to unspecified codes and many deny them when the medical record supports a more specific option, so check the documentation before selecting D82.9 — the more specific alternatives are listed below.

How is D82.9 listed in the Alphabetic Index?
These are the routes through the Alphabetic Index that lead to D82.9. They show the wording a clinician may have documented, which often differs from the Tabular description.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from D80-D89
The conditions below can never be reported together with D82.9 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
