Q87

Other specified congenital malformation syndromes affecting multiple systems

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:

  • Q87.0 Congenital malformation syndromes predominantly affecting facial appearance
  • Q87.1 Congenital malformation syndromes predominantly associated with short stature (also a header)
  • Q87.2 Congenital malformation syndromes predominantly involving limbs
  • Q87.3 Congenital malformation syndromes involving early overgrowth
  • Q87.4 Marfan syndrome (also a header)
  • Q87.5 Other congenital malformation syndromes with other skeletal changes
  • Q87.8 Other specified congenital malformation syndromes, not elsewhere classified (also a header)
  • Q87.A Loeys-Dietz syndrome

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.
