Z83.4Family history of other endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases

Z83.4 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for family history of other endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases. It belongs to category Z83 (family history of other specific disorders), block Z77-Z99 (persons with potential health hazards related to family and personal history and certain conditions influencing health status) and chapter 21 (factors influencing health status and contact with health services). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 4 subcodes must be used instead.

Within Z83, choose Z83.4 (other endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] disease (Z83.0), other infectious and parasitic diseases (Z83.1), diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism (Z83.2), diabetes mellitus (Z83.3), eye and ear disorders (Z83.5), other diseases of the respiratory system (Z83.6) and diseases of the digestive system (Z83.7).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: Z83.41 (syndrome), Z83.42 (hypercholesterolemia), Z83.43 (lipidemias) and Z83.49 (diseases).

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