Z67 is a non-billable ICD-10-CM category code for blood type, so it cannot be submitted on claims. Use a more specific code from this category instead, such as Z67.10, Z67.11, Z67.20, and Z67.21.

Specific Coding for Blood typeOverview
Non-specific codes like Z67 require more characters. Use one of these billable codes instead:
Z67.1 for Type A blood
Use Z67.10 for Type A blood, Rh positive
Use Z67.11 for Type A blood, Rh negative
Z67.2 for Type B blood
Use Z67.20 for Type B blood, Rh positive
Use Z67.21 for Type B blood, Rh negative
Z67.3 for Type AB blood
Use Z67.30 for Type AB blood, Rh positive
Use Z67.31 for Type AB blood, Rh negative
Z67.4 for Type O blood
Use Z67.40 for Type O blood, Rh positive
Use Z67.41 for Type O blood, Rh negative
Z67.9 for Unspecified blood type
Use Z67.90 for Unspecified blood type, Rh positive
Use Z67.91 for Unspecified blood type, Rh negative
Z67.A for Duffy phenotype
Use Z67.A1 for Duffy null
Use Z67.A2 for Duffy a positive
Use Z67.A3 for Duffy b positive
Use Z67.A4 for Duffy a and b positive

ABO Blood Group|ABO Blood Type|ABO blood group system|ABO_Type
a blood group system based on recognition of inherited differences in the h antigen as expressed on erythrocytes.Blood Group A|A|Blood Type A
a blood group indicating the presence on erythrocytes of only the a form of the h antigen.Blood Group AB|AB|Blood Type AB
a blood group indicating the presence on erythrocytes of both the a and b forms of the h antigen.Blood Group B|B|Blood Type B
a blood group indicating the presence on erythrocytes of only the b form of the h antigen.Blood Group O|Blood Type O|O
a blood group indicating the absence on erythrocytes of both the a and b forms of the h antigen.Blood Group|Blood Type
a classification of blood based on the presence or absence of inherited antigenic substances on the surface of erythrocytes.Blood Type
the specific reaction pattern of erythrocytes of an individual to the antisera of one blood group; e.g., the abo blood group consists of four major blood types: o, a, b, and ab. this classification depends on the presence or absence of two major antigens: a or b. type o occurs when neither is present and type ab when both are present. the blood type is the genetic phenotype of the individual for one blood group system and may be determined using different antisera available for testing.Blood Type Determination
a diagnostic test to classify the blood type of an individual. it is determined based on the presence or absence of certain antigens on the red blood cells surface.Blood Typing Test|Blood Group Determination|Blood Group Typing|Blood Group Typing Test|Blood Type Determination|Blood Typing
clinical laboratory tests that detect and identify the antigens expressed by red blood cells to determine a subject's blood type.

Blood
Your blood is made up of liquid and solids. The liquid part, called plasma, is made of water, salts, and protein. Over half of your blood is plasma. The solid part of your blood contains red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.
