N85Other noninflammatory disorders of uterus, except cervix

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

N85 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for other noninflammatory disorders of uterus, except cervix. 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.

  • endometriosis (N80.-)
  • inflammatory diseases of uterus (N71.-)
  • noninflammatory disorders of cervix, except malposition (N86-N88)
  • polyp of corpus uteri (N84.0)
  • uterine prolapse (N81.-)

Other codes that can never be billed with N85

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at N85. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading N85 alone.

  • N71Inflammatory disease of uterus, except cervix
  • N83.6Hematosalpinx
  • N84.0Polyp of corpus uteri

Risk adjustment

N85 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 N85

10 child codes. Green means billable.
