About C95

C95 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for leukemia of unspecified cell type. It belongs to block C81-C96 (malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissue) and chapter 2 (neoplasms). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: C95.0 (type), C95.1 (type) and C95.9 (unspecified).

Don't report C95 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: personal history of leukemia (Z85.6).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
