K62Other diseases of anus and rectum

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

K62 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for other diseases of anus and rectum. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

Excludes2 — not included here, but may coexist

The excluded condition is not part of this code, but a patient can have both. You may code both.

  • colostomy and enterostomy malfunction (K94.0-, K94.1-)
  • fecal incontinence (R15.-)
  • hemorrhoids (K64.-)

Includes

Conditions this code covers.

  • anal canal

Other codes that can never be billed with K62

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at K62. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading K62 alone.

  • R85.61Abnormal cytologic smear of anus
  • D01.3Carcinoma in situ of anus and anal canal
  • K63.3Ulcer of intestine
  • K92.2Gastrointestinal hemorrhage, unspecified

Risk adjustment

K62 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 K62

10 child codes. Green means billable.
