D05.80Other specified type of carcinoma in situ of unspecified breast

Billable / specific codeICD-10-CMunspecified

D05.80 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for other specified type of carcinoma in situ of unspecified breast. It is valid for submission on a claim.

Excludes1 inherited from the categories above D05.80

These are not written on D05.80, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing D05.80 with anything listed here is a denial.

Written on D05 Carcinoma in situ of breast

  • carcinoma in situ of skin of breast (D04.5)
  • melanoma in situ of breast (skin) (D03.5)
  • Paget's disease of breast or nipple (C50.-)

Excludes2 inherited from the categories above D05.80

Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of D05.80, but a patient can have both, so you may code both.

Written on D05 Carcinoma in situ of breast

  • malignant neoplasm of breast (C50.-)

Risk adjustment

D05.80 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.

Medicare coverage

D05.80 is named in 13 Medicare coverage policies 13 listing it as supporting medical necessity. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
