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 9 more specific codes instead:

  • K80.0 Calculus of gallbladder with acute cholecystitis (also a header)
  • K80.1 Calculus of gallbladder with other cholecystitis (also a header)
  • K80.2 Calculus of gallbladder without cholecystitis (also a header)
  • K80.3 Calculus of bile duct with cholangitis (also a header)
  • K80.4 Calculus of bile duct with cholecystitis (also a header)
  • K80.5 Calculus of bile duct without cholangitis or cholecystitis (also a header)
  • K80.6 Calculus of gallbladder and bile duct with cholecystitis (also a header)
  • K80.7 Calculus of gallbladder and bile duct without cholecystitis (also a header)
  • K80.8 Other cholelithiasis (also a header)
