R92.3 — Mammographic density found on imaging of breast
Is R92.3 billable?
No — R92.3 is a non-billable header code. R92.3 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 13 billable codes beneath R92.3.

How is R92.3 listed in the Alphabetic Index?
These are the routes through the Alphabetic Index that lead to R92.3. They show the wording a clinician may have documented, which often differs from the Tabular description.
- Breast › dense
Code also
Two codes may be needed to describe the condition fully. Whether R92.3 is sequenced first depends on the reason for the encounter.
- , if applicable, inconclusive mammogram (R92.2)
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from R90-R94
The conditions below can never be reported together with R92.3 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- abnormal findings on antenatal screening of mother (O28.-)
- diagnostic abnormal findings classified elsewhere - see Alphabetical Index
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 18
The conditions below are not part of R92.3, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, R92.3 and the excluded code may both be reported.
