What the Official Guidelines say about Inclusion Terms (Applicable To) Section I.A.11

A list of terms is included under some codes. These terms are the conditions for which that code is to be used. The terms may be synonyms of the code title or, in the case of "other specified" codes, a list of the various conditions assigned to that code. Inclusion terms are not necessarily exhaustive: additional terms found only in the Alphabetic Index may also be assigned to a code.

Questions About Inclusion Terms (Applicable To)

What are inclusion terms in ICD-10-CM?

Inclusion terms are the conditions for which a code is to be used. They may be synonyms of the code title or, for “other specified” codes, a list of the conditions assigned to the code. The list is not necessarily exhaustive: terms found only in the Alphabetic Index may also be assigned to the code (Section I.A.11).

Why does this page list only some inclusion terms?

Most inclusion terms are plain clinical descriptions. This page lists the 173 inclusion terms (out of 12,629) whose wording names another code, usually a pointer to a related category or range. Every inclusion term, with or without a code, is shown on its own code page.

Are inclusion terms inherited by the codes below?

No. An inclusion term belongs to the code it is printed under. That is why ICD List code pages show a code’s own inclusion terms but not those of its parent codes.

Official Sources & Methodology

Every note on these pages is loaded verbatim from the FY 2027 ICD-10-CM Tabular List. Code references inside the notes are matched against the FY 2027 code set, so every link opens a valid code; scope counts (“applies to N codes”) count the billable codes under the note’s chapter, block or category.

ICD List is not affiliated with CMS or NCHS. These pages are a coding reference; the Tabular List and the Official Guidelines remain the authority.
