Looking at these factors can help you figure out whether you have a higher risk for certain health problems, such as heart disease, stroke, and cancer.

Questions About Z84.2Overview

Can Z84.2 be a principal diagnosis?

No. The Medicare Code Editor rejects this code as a principal diagnosis because family history of other diseases of the genitourinary system describes a circumstance that influences health status rather than a current illness. Report it as a secondary diagnosis.

Is Z84.2 exempt from POA reporting?
