J67 — Hypersensitivity pneumonitis due to organic dust
Is J67 billable?
No — J67 is a non-billable header code. J67 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 10 billable codes beneath J67.

Excludes1 — never code together
The conditions below can never be reported together with J67 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- pneumonitis due to inhalation of chemicals, gases, fumes or vapors (J68.0)
Includes
Conditions classified to J67.
- allergic alveolitis and pneumonitis due to inhaled organic dust and particles of fungal, actinomycetic or other origin
Use additional code — inherited from Chapter 10
