T56.7X — Toxic effects of beryllium and its compounds
Is T56.7X billable?
No — T56.7X is a non-billable header code. T56.7X 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 12 billable codes beneath T56.7X.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from T51-T65
The conditions below can never be reported together with T56.7X on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- contact with and (suspected) exposure to toxic substances (Z77.-)
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from T56
The conditions below can never be reported together with T56.7X on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
