Is N86 a billable ICD-10-CM code?

Yes. N86 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code and is valid for submission on a claim.

Where does N86 sit in the tabular list?

Diseases of the genitourinary system (N00-N99), in the block Noninflammatory disorders of female genital tract (N80-N98).

What cannot be coded together with N86?

N86 carries an Excludes1 note, which means the conditions it lists can never be coded together with it on the same encounter.

N86

N86 — Erosion and ectropion of cervix uteri

Billable / specific codeICD-10-CM

N86 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for erosion and ectropion of cervix uteri. It is valid for submission on a claim.

Excludes1 — never code together

These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.

erosion and ectropion of cervix with cervicitis (N72)

Inclusion terms

Alternative wordings a physician may use in the chart for this same code.

Decubitus (trophic) ulcer of cervix
Eversion of cervix

Other codes that can never be billed with N86

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at N86. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading N86 alone.

N72Inflammatory disease of cervix uteri
N85Other noninflammatory disorders of uterus, except cervix

Risk adjustment

N86 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.

How N86 is indexed

Coders do not find codes by browsing the tabular list — they look them up in the alphabetic index, under the word the physician wrote. These are the index entries that lead here, so you can see which chart wordings map to N86.
