Q27

Other congenital malformations of peripheral vascular system

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 7 more specific codes instead:

  • Q27.0 Congenital absence and hypoplasia of umbilical artery
  • Q27.1 Congenital renal artery stenosis
  • Q27.2 Other congenital malformations of renal artery
  • Q27.3 Arteriovenous malformation (peripheral) (also a header)
  • Q27.4 Congenital phlebectasia
  • Q27.8 Other specified congenital malformations of peripheral vascular system
  • Q27.9 Congenital malformation of peripheral vascular system, 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.
