P83Other conditions of integument specific to newborn

Not billable

Is P83 billable?

No — P83 is a non-billable header code. P83 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 11 billable codes beneath P83.

Excludes1 — never code together

The conditions below can never be reported together with P83 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 skin and integument (Q80-Q84)
  • hydrops fetalis due to hemolytic disease (P56.-)
  • neonatal skin infection (P39.4)
  • staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (L00)

Excludes2 — not included here

The conditions below are not part of P83, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, P83 and the excluded code may both be reported.

  • cradle cap (L21.0)
  • diaper [napkin] dermatitis (L22)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 16

The conditions below are not part of P83, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, P83 and the excluded code may both be reported.

  • 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)
  • tetanus neonatorum (A33)

What codes fall under P83? (9)

How long has P83 existed?

P83 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.

Which codes are confused with P83?

ICD-10-CM declares these codes mutually exclusive with P83 — exactly one of each pair can be correct for a given encounter.
