J84

Other interstitial pulmonary diseases

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 5 more specific codes instead:

  • J84.0 Alveolar and parieto-alveolar conditions (also a header)
  • J84.1 Other interstitial pulmonary diseases with fibrosis (also a header)
  • J84.2 Lymphoid interstitial pneumonia
  • J84.8 Other specified interstitial pulmonary diseases (also a header)
  • J84.9 Interstitial pulmonary disease, 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.
