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 10 more specific codes instead:

  • R86.0 Abnormal level of enzymes in specimens from male genital organs
  • R86.1 Abnormal level of hormones in specimens from male genital organs
  • R86.2 Abnormal level of other drugs, medicaments and biological substances in specimens from male genital organs

  • R86.7 Abnormal histological findings in specimens from male genital organs
  • R86.8 Other abnormal findings in specimens from male genital organs
  • R86.9 Unspecified abnormal finding in specimens from male genital organs

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.
