Osteitis deformans of other bones

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:

  • M88.81 Osteitis deformans of shoulder (also a header)
  • M88.82 Osteitis deformans of upper arm (also a header)
  • M88.83 Osteitis deformans of forearm (also a header)
  • M88.84 Osteitis deformans of hand (also a header)
  • M88.85 Osteitis deformans of thigh (also a header)
  • M88.86 Osteitis deformans of lower leg (also a header)
  • M88.87 Osteitis deformans of ankle and foot (also a header)
  • M88.88 Osteitis deformans of other bones
  • M88.89 Osteitis deformans of multiple sites

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.
