Q50

Q50 — Congenital malformations of ovaries, fallopian tubes and broad ligaments

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

Q50 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for congenital malformations of ovaries, fallopian tubes and broad ligaments. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

Other codes that can never be billed with Q50

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at Q50. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading Q50 alone.

N83.2Other and unspecified ovarian cysts
D28Benign neoplasm of other and unspecified female genital organs

Risk adjustment

Q50 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 Q50

7 child codes. Green means billable.
