R93 — Abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging of other body structures
Is R93 billable?
No — R93 is a non-billable header code. R93 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 18 billable codes beneath R93.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from R90-R94
The conditions below can never be reported together with R93 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 R93, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, R93 and the excluded code may both be reported.
