Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

Y92.16 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for school dormitory as the place of occurrence of the external cause. 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.

  • school buildings and grounds as the place of occurrence of the external cause (Y92.2-)
  • school sports and athletic areas as the place of occurrence of the external cause (Y92.3-)

Other codes that can never be billed with Y92.16

Their own Excludes1 notes name this code, so the conflict is not listed above.
