F45

Somatoform disorders

Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

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

A category header for its whole life, FY2016 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 6 more specific codes instead:

  • F45.0 Somatization disorder
  • F45.1 Undifferentiated somatoform disorder
  • F45.2 Hypochondriacal disorders (also a header)
  • F45.4 Pain disorders related to psychological factors (also a header)
  • F45.8 Other somatoform disorders
  • F45.9 Somatoform disorder, unspecified

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.

  1. FY2012 Added to the draft code set draft Somatoform disorders

Official coding rules
