Questions About Z83.711Overview
Is Z83.711 (Family history of colonic polyps) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report family history of hyperplastic colon polyps on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
Can Z83.711 be a principal diagnosis?
No. The Medicare Code Editor rejects this code as a principal diagnosis because family history of hyperplastic colon polyps describes a circumstance that influences health status rather than a current illness. Report it as a secondary diagnosis.
Is Z83.711 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 hyperplastic colon polyps on inpatient claims.
