Questions About M07Overview
What is the ICD-10 code for enteropathic arthropathies?
M07 is the ICD-10-CM category for enteropathic arthropathies, but it is a non-billable header: claims need a more specific code from this category, listed on this page.
Is M07 (Enteropathic arthropathies) a billable code?
No. This is a category header that groups the codes for enteropathic arthropathies, and headers cannot be submitted on claims. Claims for enteropathic arthropathies need a more specific code from this category, such as M07.60, M07.611, and M07.612.
Can M07 be reported with a code from L40.5?
Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note on M07 lists "psoriatic arthropathies (L40.5-)". An Excludes1 note means the excluded code is never reported together with this one; the only exception is when the two conditions are unrelated to each other (Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
