M89.7 — Major osseous defect

Not billable

Is M89.7 billable?

No — M89.7 is a non-billable header code. M89.7 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 M89.7.

Code first

The underlying condition below must be sequenced before M89.7. M89.7 describes a manifestation and cannot be the principal or first-listed diagnosis.

  • underlying disease, if known, such as:
  • aseptic necrosis of bone (M87.-)
  • malignant neoplasm of bone (C40.-)
  • osteolysis (M89.5-)
  • osteomyelitis (M86.-)
  • osteonecrosis (M87.-)
  • osteoporosis (M80.-, M81.-)
  • periprosthetic osteolysis (T84.05-)

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from M86-M90

The conditions below can never be reported together with M89.7 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • postprocedural osteopathies (M96.-)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 13

The conditions below are not part of M89.7, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, M89.7 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)

What codes fall under M89.7? (10)

How long has M89.7 existed?

Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
