About D36
D36 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for benign neoplasm of other and unspecified sites. It belongs to block D10-D36 (benign neoplasms, except benign neuroendocrine tumors) and chapter 2 (neoplasms). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 4 subcodes must be used instead.
To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: D36.0 (nodes), D36.1 (system), D36.7 (sites) and D36.9 (site).
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
