BillableUnspecified

Is K08.192 billable?

Yes, but K08.192 is an unspecified code. K08.192 is a valid, billable ICD-10-CM code for encounters from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. However, K08.192 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 K08.192 — the more specific alternatives are listed below.

How is K08.192 listed in the Alphabetic Index?

These are the routes through the Alphabetic Index that lead to K08.192. They show the wording a clinician may have documented, which often differs from the Tabular description.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from K08.1

The conditions below can never be reported together with K08.192 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • congenital absence of teeth (K00.0)
  • exfoliation of teeth due to systemic causes (K08.0)
  • partial loss of teeth (K08.4-)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 11

The conditions below are not part of K08.192, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, K08.192 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 K08

The conditions below are not part of K08.192, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, K08.192 and the excluded code may both be reported.

  • dentofacial anomalies [including malocclusion] (M26.-)
  • disorders of jaw (M27.-)

How long has K08.192 existed?

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