I80Phlebitis and thrombophlebitis

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

I80 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for phlebitis and thrombophlebitis. 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.

Code first

The underlying condition must be sequenced before this code.

  • , if applicable: phlebitis and thrombophlebitis complicating abortion, ectopic or molar pregnancy (O00-O07, O08.7)
  • phlebitis and thrombophlebitis complicating pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O22.-, O87.-)

Includes

Conditions this code covers.

  • endophlebitis
  • inflammation, vein
  • periphlebitis
  • suppurative phlebitis

Other codes that can never be billed with I80

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at I80. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading I80 alone.

  • N61Inflammatory disorders of breast

Risk adjustment

I80 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 I80

6 child codes. Green means billable.
