About K6A

K6A is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for diseases of the pelvis, not elsewhere classified. It belongs to block K65-K6A (diseases of peritoneum, retroperitoneum and pelvis) and chapter 11 (diseases of the digestive system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 2 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: K6A.0 (abscess) and K6A.8 (classified).

It was added in FY2027, effective October 1, 2026.
