K82 — Other diseases of gallbladder

Not billable

Is K82 billable?

No — K82 is a non-billable header code. K82 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 9 billable codes beneath K82.

Excludes1 — never code together

The conditions below can never be reported together with K82 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

nonvisualization of gallbladder (R93.2)
postcholecystectomy syndrome (K91.5)
