- Code Navigator:
J34.82 is a non-specific and non-billable diagnosis code code, consider using a code with a higher level of specificity for a diagnosis of nasal valve collapse. The code is not specific and is NOT valid for the year 2025 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions. Category or Header define the heading of a category of codes that may be further subdivided by the use of 4th, 5th, 6th or 7th characters.
Specific Coding Applicable to Nasal valve collapse
Non-specific codes like J34.82 require more digits to indicate the appropriate level of specificity. Consider using any of the following ICD-10-CM codes with a higher level of specificity when coding for nasal valve collapse:
J34.820 for Internal nasal valve collapse - NON-BILLABLE CODE
Use J34.8200 for unspecified - BILLABLE CODE
Use J34.8201 for static - BILLABLE CODE
Use J34.8202 for dynamic - BILLABLE CODE
J34.821 for External nasal valve collapse - NON-BILLABLE CODE
Use J34.8210 for unspecified - BILLABLE CODE
Use J34.8211 for static - BILLABLE CODE
Use J34.8212 for dynamic - BILLABLE CODE
Use J34.829 for Nasal valve collapse, unspecified - BILLABLE CODE
Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries
The following annotation back-references are applicable to this diagnosis code. The Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries is a list of ICD-10-CM codes, organized "head to toe" into chapters and sections with coding notes and guidance for inclusions, exclusions, descriptions and more.
Inclusion Terms
Inclusion TermsThese terms are the conditions for which that code is to be used. The terms may be synonyms of the code title, or, in the case of "other specified" codes, the terms are a list of the various conditions assigned to that code. The inclusion terms are not necessarily exhaustive. Additional terms found only in the Alphabetic Index may also be assigned to a code.
- Nasal valve compromise
- Nasal valve stenosis
Code First
Code FirstCertain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. For such conditions, the ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists, there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes, etiology followed by manifestation.
