Fistulae involving female genital tract

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 8 more specific codes instead:

N82.0 Vesicovaginal fistula
N82.1 Other female urinary-genital tract fistulae
N82.2 Fistula of vagina to small intestine
N82.3 Fistula of vagina to large intestine
N82.4 Other female intestinal-genital tract fistulae
N82.5 Female genital tract-skin fistulae
N82.8 Other female genital tract fistulae
N82.9 Female genital tract fistula, 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.
