S83.0 — Subluxation and dislocation of patella
Is S83.0 billable?
No — S83.0 is a non-billable header code. S83.0 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 54 billable codes beneath S83.0.

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 19
The conditions below are not part of S83.0, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S83.0 and the excluded code may both be reported.
