Z87.44Personal history of diseases of urinary system

Z87.44 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for personal history of diseases of urinary system. It belongs to category Z87 (personal history of other diseases and conditions), 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 Z87.4 (personal history of diseases of genitourinary system), Z87.44 is specifically for personal history of diseases of urinary system. Related codes cover dysplasia of the female genital tract (Z87.41), other diseases of the female genital tract (Z87.42) and diseases of male genital organs (Z87.43).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: Z87.440 (infections), Z87.441 (syndrome), Z87.442 (calculi) and Z87.448 (system).

Don't report Z87.44 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: personal history of malignant neoplasm of cervix uteri (Z85.41).

Code first: any follow-up examination after treatment (Z09).
