Cancer
Cancer is not just one disease but many diseases. Cancer begins in your cells, which are the building blocks of your body. Usually, your body forms new cells as needed, replacing old cells that die. Sometimes this process goes wrong. New cells grow even when you don't need them, and old cells don't die when they should.

Questions About Z80.7Overview
Is Z80.7 (Family history of primary malignant neoplasm) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report family history of other malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissues on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
Can Z80.7 be a principal diagnosis?
No. The Medicare Code Editor rejects this code as a principal diagnosis because family history of other malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissues describes a circumstance that influences health status rather than a current illness. Report it as a secondary diagnosis.
Is Z80.7 exempt from POA reporting?
Yes. CMS lists this code among those exempt from present on admission reporting, so hospitals do not assign a POA indicator for family history of other malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissues on inpatient claims.
What is the ICD-9 equivalent of Z80.7?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, family history of other malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissues converts to ICD-9-CM V16.7 (fam hx-lymph neoplas NEC). The mapping is a direct match.
