R30-R39 — Symptoms and signs involving the genitourinary system
ICD-10-CM codes R30-R39 cover symptoms and signs involving the genitourinary system, within symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified. The block holds 54 codes across 9 categories, of which 42 are billable and 12 are header codes that cannot be submitted on a claim.
What else to watch in R30-R39
- 2 codes are laterality-specific. They come in left and right pairs, and the pair is mutually exclusive on a single site: coding both without a bilateral code is a contradiction a scrubber should catch before the payer does.
- 37 codes are named in Medicare coverage policies. An LCD or NCD lists them as supporting medical necessity, or explicitly as not supporting it. Which applies depends on the MAC for your state.
