D02Carcinoma in situ of middle ear and respiratory system

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

D02 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for carcinoma in situ of middle ear and respiratory system. 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.

  • melanoma in situ (D03.-)

Use additional code

Add a secondary code to capture the detail described below.

  • code to identify:
  • exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (Z77.22)
  • exposure to tobacco smoke in the perinatal period (P96.81)
  • history of tobacco dependence (Z87.891)
  • occupational exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (Z57.31)
  • tobacco dependence (F17.-)
  • tobacco use (Z72.0)

Other codes that can never be billed with D02

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at D02. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading D02 alone.

  • D00.0Carcinoma in situ of lip, oral cavity and pharynx

Risk adjustment

D02 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 D02

5 child codes. Green means billable.
