Estrogen, and other hormones and factors receptor status (Z17) ICD-10-CM
The Z17 code range covers estrogen, and other hormones and factors receptor status with 16 ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes. 10 of them are billable and valid for claim submission in fiscal year 2027, and the category headers group them but cannot themselves be billed.
Code First
Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. For such conditions, the ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists, there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes, etiology followed by manifestation.

About the Z17 Code Range
Receptor status describes whether certain hormone or factor receptors are present. Here, the codes distinguish estrogen, progesterone, human epidermal growth factor 2, and combined receptor status.
Z17.0 identifies positive estrogen receptor status, while Z17.1 identifies negative status. Z17.2 identifies progesterone receptor status, Z17.3 identifies human epidermal growth factor 2 receptor status, and Z17.4 identifies combined receptor status.
