Questions About Z91.030Overview

Is Z91.030 (Insect allergy status) a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report bee allergy status on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.

Can Z91.030 be a principal diagnosis?

No. The Medicare Code Editor rejects this code as a principal diagnosis because bee allergy status describes a circumstance that influences health status rather than a current illness. Report it as a secondary diagnosis.

Is Z91.030 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 bee allergy status on inpatient claims.

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of Z91.030?

Under the General Equivalence Mappings, bee allergy status converts to ICD-9-CM V15.06 (hx-allergy insct/arachnd). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
