Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

Submit one of these 5 more specific codes instead:

Q56.0 Hermaphroditism, not elsewhere classified
Q56.1 Male pseudohermaphroditism, not elsewhere classified
Q56.2 Female pseudohermaphroditism, not elsewhere classified
Q56.3 Pseudohermaphroditism, 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.

FY2012 Added to the draft code set draft Indeterminate sex and pseudohermaphroditism
