B37Candidiasis

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

B37 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for candidiasis. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

Excludes1 — never code together

These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.

  • neonatal candidiasis (P37.5)

Includes

Conditions this code covers.

  • candidosis
  • moniliasis

Other codes that can never be billed with B37

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at B37. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading B37 alone.

  • N16Renal tubulo-interstitial disorders in diseases classified elsewhere
  • N33Bladder disorders in diseases classified elsewhere
  • N37Urethral disorders in diseases classified elsewhere
  • N39.0Urinary tract infection, site not specified
  • N48.1Balanitis
  • N51Disorders of male genital organs in diseases classified elsewhere
  • N77.1Vaginitis, vulvitis and vulvovaginitis in diseases classified elsewhere
  • G02Meningitis in other infectious and parasitic diseases classified elsewhere

Risk adjustment

B37 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.

Code to one of these instead B37

10 child codes. Green means billable.
