Specific Coding for Monosomies and deletions from the autosomes, NECOverview

Non-specific codes like Q93 require more characters. Use one of these billable codes instead:

  • Use Q93.0 for Whole chromosome monosomy, nonmosaicism (meiotic nondisjunction)

  • Use Q93.1 for Whole chromosome monosomy, mosaicism (mitotic nondisjunction)

  • Use Q93.2 for Chromosome replaced with ring, dicentric or isochromosome

  • Use Q93.3 for Deletion of short arm of chromosome 4

  • Use Q93.4 for Deletion of short arm of chromosome 5

  • Q93.5 for Other deletions of part of a chromosome

  • Use Q93.51 for Angelman syndrome

  • Use Q93.52 for Phelan-McDermid syndrome

  • Use Q93.59 for Other deletions of part of a chromosome

  • Use Q93.7 for Deletions with other complex rearrangements

  • Q93.8 for Other deletions from the autosomes

  • Use Q93.81 for Velo-cardio-facial syndrome

  • Use Q93.82 for Williams syndrome

  • Use Q93.88 for Other microdeletions

  • Use Q93.89 for Other deletions from the autosomes

  • Use Q93.9 for Deletion from autosomes, unspecified

Genetic Disorders

Genetic disorders are health conditions caused by changes (also called mutations or variants) in your genes. Genes are parts of DNA found in your cells that carry instructions for how your body grows, develops, and functions. Many genes tell your body how to make proteins, which are needed for your body to work properly.

Questions About Q93Overview

Is Q93 a billable code?

No. This is a category header that groups the codes for monosomies and deletions from the autosomes, not elsewhere classified, and headers cannot be submitted on claims. Claims for monosomies and deletions from the autosomes, not elsewhere classified need a more specific code from this category, such as Q93.0, Q93.1, and Q93.2.
