R01 — Cardiac murmurs and other cardiac sounds
Is R01 billable?
No — R01 is a non-billable header code. R01 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 3 billable codes beneath R01.

Excludes1 — never code together
The conditions below can never be reported together with R01 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- cardiac murmurs and sounds originating in the perinatal period (P29.8)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 18
The conditions below are not part of R01, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, R01 and the excluded code may both be reported.
