Y07.5Non-family member, perpetrator of maltreatment and neglect

Y07.5 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for non-family member, perpetrator of maltreatment and neglect. It belongs to category Y07 (perpetrator of assault, maltreatment and neglect), block X92-Y09 (assault) and chapter 20 (external causes of morbidity). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 6 subcodes must be used instead.

Within Y07 (perpetrator of assault, maltreatment and neglect), Y07.5 is specifically for non-family member, perpetrator of maltreatment and neglect. Related codes cover spouse or partner, perpetrator of maltreatment and neglect (Y07.0), parent (adoptive) (biological), perpetrator of maltreatment and neglect (Y07.1), other family member, perpetrator of maltreatment and neglect (Y07.4), multiple perpetrators of maltreatment and neglect (Y07.6) and unspecified perpetrator of maltreatment and neglect (Y07.9).
