N30.0 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for acute cystitis. 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.

  • N02Recurrent and persistent hematuria
  • R31Hematuria

Risk adjustment

N30.0 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 N30.0
