Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

Submit one of these 7 more specific codes instead:

C86.0 Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (also a header)
C86.1 Hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma (also a header)
C86.2 Enteropathy-type (intestinal) T-cell lymphoma (also a header)
C86.3 Subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma (also a header)

C86.5 Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (also a header)
C86.6 Primary cutaneous CD30-positive T-cell proliferations (also a header)

What has happened to this code

Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.

FY2012 Added to the draft code set draft Other specified types of T/NK-cell lymphoma
