Is C92.0 a billable ICD-10-CM code?

No. C92.0 is a non-billable header code. Code to a higher level of specificity using one of its child codes.

Where does C92.0 sit in the tabular list?

Neoplasms (C00-D49), in the block Malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissue (C81-C96).

What cannot be coded together with C92.0?

C92.0 carries an Excludes1 note, which means the conditions it lists can never be coded together with it on the same encounter.

C92.0 — Acute myeloblastic leukemia

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

C92.0 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for acute myeloblastic leukemia. 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.

acute exacerbation of chronic myeloid leukemia (C92.10)
refractory anemia with excess of blasts not in transformation (D46.2-)

Inclusion terms

Alternative wordings a physician may use in the chart for this same code.

Acute myeloblastic leukemia, minimal differentiation
Acute myeloblastic leukemia (with maturation)
Acute myeloblastic leukemia 1/ETO
Acute myeloblastic leukemia M0
Acute myeloblastic leukemia M1
Acute myeloblastic leukemia M2
Acute myeloblastic leukemia with t(8;21)
Acute myeloblastic leukemia (without a FAB classification) NOS
Refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation [RAEB T]

Other codes that can never be billed with C92.0

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at C92.0. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading C92.0 alone.

Risk adjustment

C92.0 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 C92.0

3 child codes. Green means billable.
