L74 — Eccrine sweat disorders
Is L74 billable?

Excludes2 — not included here
The conditions below are not part of L74, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, L74 and the excluded code may both be reported.
- generalized hyperhidrosis (R61)
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from L60-L75
The conditions below can never be reported together with L74 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 malformations of integument (Q84.-)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 12
