E34
E34 — Other endocrine disorders
Non-billable headerICD-10-CM
E34 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for other endocrine disorders. 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.
- pseudohypoparathyroidism (E20.1)
Other codes that can never be billed with E34
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at E34. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading E34 alone.
- Q56Indeterminate sex and pseudohermaphroditism
- R62.52Short stature (child)
- E21Hyperparathyroidism and other disorders of parathyroid gland
- E29Testicular dysfunction
- E79Disorders of purine and pyrimidine metabolism
- E22.0Acromegaly and pituitary gigantism
- E23Hypofunction and other disorders of the pituitary gland
- E34.3Short stature due to endocrine disorder
Risk adjustment
E34 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 E34
