D06.1 — Carcinoma in situ of exocervix
D06.1 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for carcinoma in situ of exocervix. It is valid for submission on a claim.
Excludes1 inherited from the categories above D06.1
These are not written on D06.1, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing D06.1 with anything listed here is a denial.
Written on D06 — Carcinoma in situ of cervix uteri
Other codes that can never be billed with D06.1
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at D06.1. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading D06.1 alone.
Risk adjustment
D06.1 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
D06.1 is named in 15 Medicare coverage policies — 15 listing it as supporting medical necessity. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.

How D06.1 is indexed
Coders do not find codes by browsing the tabular list — they look them up in the alphabetic index, under the word the physician wrote. These are the index entries that lead here, so you can see which chart wordings map to D06.1.
