Is N87 a billable ICD-10-CM code?

No. N87 is a non-billable header code. Code to a higher level of specificity using one of its child codes.

N87

N87 — Dysplasia of cervix uteri

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

N87 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for dysplasia of cervix uteri. 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.

abnormal results from cervical cytologic examination without histologic confirmation (R87.61-)
carcinoma in situ of cervix uteri (D06.-)
cervical intraepithelial neoplasia III [CIN III] (D06.-)
HGSIL of cervix (R87.613)
severe dysplasia of cervix uteri (D06.-)

Other codes that can never be billed with N87

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at N87. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading N87 alone.

R87.61Abnormal cytological findings in specimens from cervix uteri
R87.7Abnormal histological findings in specimens from female genital organs
D06Carcinoma in situ of cervix uteri

Risk adjustment

N87 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 N87

3 child codes. Green means billable.
