What hysterectomy ICD-10 codes can I use?
If you're looking for hysterectomy ICD codes, none mention hysterectomy in their names, so it wouldn't be surprising if you have trouble finding one. That doesn't mean there aren't any, though!
For surgical procedures, ICD-10 codes are used to document that the procedures have already occurred. Some have ICD-10 codes for screening patients to determine if they are eligible to undergo specific procedures.
In the case of hysterectomy, there are only ICD-10 codes that indicate that a patient has already undergone a hysterectomy. Here they are:
- Z90.710 - Acquired absence of both cervix and uterus
This ICD-10 code is meant to be used on a patient confirmed to no longer have a cervix and uterus due to surgery. If you've performed a hysterectomy on a patient, you can use this after the procedure for their medical record.
- Z90.711 - Acquired absence of uterus with remaining cervical stump
This is the same as Item 1, but this time, it's for patients who have undergone a surgical procedure that removed their uterus but not their cervical stump.
