About L71

L71 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for rosacea. It belongs to block L60-L75 (disorders of skin appendages) and chapter 12 (diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue). 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: L71.0 (dermatitis), L71.1 (Rhinophyma), L71.8 (rosacea) and L71.9 (unspecified).

Use an additional code for adverse effect, if applicable, to identify drug (T36-T50 with fifth or sixth character 5).

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