About L94

L94 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other localized connective tissue disorders. It belongs to block L80-L99 (other disorders of the skin and subcutaneous tissue) 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 9 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: L94.0 ([morphea]), L94.1 (scleroderma), L94.2 (cutis), L94.3 (Sclerodactyly), L94.4 (papules), L94.5 (atrophicans), L94.6 (Ainhum), L94.8 (disorders) and 1 more.

Don't report L94 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: systemic connective tissue disorders (M30-M36).

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