M10.1 — Lead-induced gout
Is M10.1 billable?
No — M10.1 is a non-billable header code. M10.1 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 M10.1.

Code first
The underlying condition below must be sequenced before M10.1. M10.1 describes a manifestation and cannot be the principal or first-listed diagnosis.
- toxic effects of lead and its compounds (T56.0-)
Use additional code — inherited from M10
Report an additional code alongside M10.1 to fully describe the condition. M10.1 is sequenced first.
- code to identify:
- Autonomic neuropathy in diseases classified elsewhere (G99.0)
- Calculus of urinary tract in diseases classified elsewhere (N22)
- Cardiomyopathy in diseases classified elsewhere (I43)
- Disorders of external ear in diseases classified elsewhere (H61.1-, H62.8-)

How long has M10.1 existed?
M10.1 has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.
Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
