About N52

N52 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for male erectile dysfunction. It belongs to block N40-N53 (diseases of male genital organs) and chapter 14 (diseases of the genitourinary system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 6 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: N52.0 (dysfunction), N52.1 (elsewhere), N52.2 (dysfunction), N52.3 (dysfunction), N52.8 (dysfunction) and N52.9 (unspecified).

Don't report N52 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: psychogenic impotence (F52.21).

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