R82.3

R82.3 — Hemoglobinuria

Billable / specific codeICD-10-CM

R82.3 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for hemoglobinuria. 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.

hemoglobinuria due to hemolysis from external causes NEC (D59.6)
hemoglobinuria due to paroxysmal nocturnal [Marchiafava-Micheli] (D59.5)

Other codes that can never be billed with R82.3

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at R82.3. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading R82.3 alone.

R82.91Other chromoabnormalities of urine
D59.5Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria [Marchiafava-Micheli]
D59.6Hemoglobinuria due to hemolysis from other external causes

Risk adjustment

R82.3 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 R82.3 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 R82.3.
