About K63

K63 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other diseases of intestine. It belongs to block K55-K64 (other diseases of intestines) and chapter 11 (diseases of the digestive system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 8 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: K63.0 (intestine), K63.1 ((nontraumatic)), K63.2 (intestine), K63.3 (intestine), K63.4 (Enteroptosis), K63.5 (colon), K63.8 (intestine) and K63.9 (unspecified).

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