Diseases of salivary glands

Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

K11.1 Hypertrophy of salivary gland
K11.2 Sialoadenitis (also a header)
K11.3 Abscess of salivary gland
K11.4 Fistula of salivary gland
K11.5 Sialolithiasis
K11.6 Mucocele of salivary gland
K11.7 Disturbances of salivary secretion
K11.8 Other diseases of salivary glands
K11.9 Disease of salivary gland, 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.
