About N64.8

N64.8 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other specified disorders of breast. It belongs to category N64 (other disorders of breast), block N60-N65 (disorders of breast) and chapter 14 (diseases of the genitourinary system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within N64, choose N64.8 (Other specified disorders of breast) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: fissure and fistula of nipple (N64.0), fat necrosis of breast (N64.1), atrophy of breast (N64.2), Galactorrhea not associated with childbirth (N64.3), Mastodynia (N64.4), other signs and symptoms in breast (N64.5) and disorder of breast, unspecified (N64.9).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: N64.81 (breast), N64.82 (breast) and N64.89 (breast).

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