M07.6 — Enteropathic arthropathies

Not billable

Is M07.6 billable?

No — M07.6 is a non-billable header code. M07.6 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 24 billable codes beneath M07.6.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from M07

The conditions below can never be reported together with M07.6 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

psoriatic arthropathies (L40.5-)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 13

The conditions below are not part of M07.6, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, M07.6 and the excluded code may both be reported.

arthropathic psoriasis (L40.5-)
certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P04-P96)
certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
compartment syndrome (traumatic) (T79.A-)
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)

Code also — inherited from M07

Two codes may be needed to describe the condition fully. Whether M07.6 is sequenced first depends on the reason for the encounter.

associated enteropathy, such as:
regional enteritis [Crohn's disease] (K50.-)
ulcerative colitis (K51.-)
