X08.0 — Exposure to bed fire
Is X08.0 billable?
No — X08.0 is a non-billable header code. X08.0 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 9 billable codes beneath X08.0.

Inclusion terms
Alternative wording in documentation that is classified to X08.0.
- Exposure to mattress fire
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from X00-X08
The conditions below can never be reported together with X08.0 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- arson (X97)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from X00-X08
The conditions below are not part of X08.0, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, X08.0 and the excluded code may both be reported.
