About Q30

Q30 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for congenital malformations of nose. It belongs to block Q30-Q34 (congenital malformations of the respiratory system) and chapter 17 (congenital malformations, deformations, chromosomal abnormalities, and genetic disorders). 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: Q30.0 (atresia), Q30.1 (nose), Q30.2 (nose), Q30.3 (septum), Q30.8 (nose) and Q30.9 (unspecified).

Don't report Q30 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: congenital deviation of nasal septum (Q67.4).

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