About coding menopause
The ICD-10-CM code for menopause is Z78.0 (Asymptomatic menopausal state). The official index lists 21 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on Z78.0.
Within Z78 (other specified health status), Z78.0 is specifically for Asymptomatic menopausal state. Related codes cover physical restraint status (Z78.1) and other specified health status (Z78.9).
The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of Z78.0, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: symptomatic menopausal state (N95.1).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
