Congenital occlusion of ureter

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 3 more specific codes instead:

  • Q62.10 Congenital occlusion of ureter, unspecified
  • Q62.11 Congenital occlusion of ureteropelvic junction
  • Q62.12 Congenital occlusion of ureterovesical orifice

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.
