M75.3Calcific tendinitis of shoulder

M75.3 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Calcific tendinitis 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), M75.3 is specifically for Calcific tendinitis of shoulder. Related codes cover adhesive capsulitis of shoulder (M75.0), rotator cuff tear or rupture, not specified as traumatic (M75.1), Bicipital tendinitis (M75.2), 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: M75.30 (shoulder), M75.31 (shoulder) and M75.32 (shoulder).

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