G47.30 — Sleep apnea, unspecified

BillableUnspecified

Is G47.30 billable?

Yes, but G47.30 is an unspecified code. G47.30 is a valid, billable ICD-10-CM code for encounters from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. However, G47.30 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 G47.30 — the more specific alternatives are listed below.

Which MS-DRGs does G47.30 group to?

G47.30 sits in MDC Pre and helps define the logic of 3 MS-DRGs (version 44, FY2027). Which one a stay actually groups to also depends on procedures and secondary diagnoses.

How is G47.30 listed in the Alphabetic Index?

  • Sleep apnea NOS

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from G47.3

The conditions below can never be reported together with G47.30 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 6

The conditions below are not part of G47.30, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, G47.30 and the excluded code may both be reported.

  • certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P04-P96)
  • certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
  • complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A)
  • congenital malformations, deformations, and chromosomal abnormalities (Q00-Q99)
  • endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (E00-E88)
  • injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (S00-T88)
  • neoplasms (C00-D49)
  • symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified (R00-R94)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from G47

The conditions below are not part of G47.30, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, G47.30 and the excluded code may both be reported.

Code also — inherited from G47.3

Two codes may be needed to describe the condition fully. Whether G47.30 is sequenced first depends on the reason for the encounter.

  • any associated underlying condition

How long has G47.30 existed?

G47.30 has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.

Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
