K76 — Other diseases of liver
Is K76 billable?
No — K76 is a non-billable header code. K76 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 13 billable codes beneath K76.

Excludes2 — not included here
The conditions below are not part of K76, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, K76 and the excluded code may both be reported.
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from K70-K77
The conditions below can never be reported together with K76 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- jaundice NOS (R17)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 11
