About K22.71

K22.71 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Barrett's esophagus with dysplasia. It belongs to category K22 (other diseases of esophagus), block K20-K31 (diseases of esophagus, stomach and duodenum) and chapter 11 (diseases of the digestive system). 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: K22.710 (dysplasia), K22.711 (dysplasia) and K22.719 (unspecified).

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