M75.0Adhesive capsulitis of shoulder

M75.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for adhesive capsulitis of shoulder. It belongs to category M75 (shoulder lesions), block M70-M79 (other soft tissue disorders) and chapter 13 (diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within M75 (shoulder lesions), M75.0 is specifically for adhesive capsulitis of shoulder. Related codes cover rotator cuff tear or rupture, not specified as traumatic (M75.1), Bicipital tendinitis (M75.2), Calcific tendinitis of shoulder (M75.3), impingement syndrome of shoulder (M75.4), bursitis of shoulder (M75.5), other shoulder lesions (M75.8) and shoulder lesion, unspecified (M75.9).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: M75.00 (shoulder), M75.01 (shoulder) and M75.02 (shoulder).

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