Official Tabular Instructional Notes: the inclusion, exclusion and sequencing notes published for E25 in the official ICD-10-CM tabular list, quoted as published.

Notes without a marker are published on E25 itself; “inherited from” names the category or block whose note applies here.

Includes

Conditions the official ICD-10-CM tabular list includes under this code.

  • adrenogenital syndromes, virilizing or feminizing, whether acquired or due to adrenal hyperplasia consequent on inborn enzyme defects in hormone synthesis
  • Female adrenal pseudohermaphroditism
  • Female heterosexual precocious pseudopuberty
  • Male isosexual precocious pseudopuberty
  • Male macrogenitosomia praecox
  • Male sexual precocity with adrenal hyperplasia
  • Male virilization (female)

Excludes1 — Not Coded Here

Conditions generally not reported together with this code (Excludes1) -- an error unless the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).

Coder workflow for E25

MedCoder structured workflow — derived from this code’s own official record

Before you code E25

  1. E25 is not reportable as written. Select the more specific code beneath it that the documentation supports. Codes are reported to the highest level of specificity the classification provides (Guidelines I.B.2).

    ReviewE25.0, E25.8, E25.9

    See the relationships section · Guide: How to choose an ICD-10-CM code →

  2. Check the Excludes1 note: if the documentation supports a condition named there, do not simply proceed with E25. Excludes1 conditions are not reported together with this code unless the record shows they are unrelated (Guidelines I.A.12.a).

    See the official tabular notes

Choose the right path

  1. Does the documentation support one of the more specific codes beneath E25?
    Yes → Select that code and continue the checks below on its own page.
    No → E25 cannot be reported as written; query for the specificity its subcategory needs.

    ReviewE25.0, E25.8, E25.9

  2. Does the documentation support a condition named in E25’s Excludes1 note?
    Yes → Do not simply proceed: review the excluded code. Both are reported only when the record shows the two conditions are unrelated.
    No → Continue.

    ReviewQ56, N64.3, N62

Consider E25. Then confirm the code is valid for the date of service in the Verify section.

Documentation check

The provider’s diagnostic statement
Codes are assigned from the provider’s documented diagnosis, not from clinical criteria, test values or a medication list (Guidelines I.A.19).

Official instructions as workflow

  • Excludes1 — check before selecting E25(4 notes)

    Coding workflow: If the documentation supports a condition named in this note, do not simply proceed with E25: the two are not reported together. The one exception is when the record shows the two conditions are unrelated to each other.

Coding decision scenarios

Pattern scenarios for this code’s structure — decision rules, not clinical cases

Documentation: Both the condition E25 describes and a condition named in its Excludes1 note are documented for the same encounter.

Coding question: Can both codes be reported?

Path: Review the Excludes1 note and the excluded code, and look for a provider statement on whether the two conditions are related.

Reason: Excludes1 means the two are not coded together; the exception is when the record shows the conditions are unrelated to each other (Guidelines I.A.12.a).

ReviewQ56, N64.3, N62

Every row is derived from this code’s own record — its title, tabular notes, 7th-character family and same-category siblings — with fixed MedCoder wording; nothing is inferred about a patient. The official notes and guideline text are in the sections each row links to, and they control.

Code Overview

Adrenogenital disorders is a non-billable ICD-10-CM category code (E25). A more specific billable subcode must be selected for claims submission.

Verify Before Coding

  • Not billable as written — a more specific code is required: E25.0, E25.8, E25.9.

Relationships & Classification

MedCoder structured relationships — computed from published CMS and AHRQ datasets

Other codes that name E25 or its code family, from the CMS ICD-10-CM tabular instructional notes. Tabular-note edges are stored at the code family level that carries each note.

Referenced by 3 Excludes1 notes across 2 chapters: E30.1 — Precocious puberty, Q56 — Indeterminate sex and pseudohermaphroditism, Q89.1 — Congenital malformations of adrenal gland.

These codes’ tabular lists mark this diagnosis as mutually exclusive — not reported together unless the conditions are documented as unrelated.

Referenced by 1 Code First instruction: G63 — Polyneuropathy in diseases classified elsewhere.

Each of these codes carries a Code First note naming this condition — when that code is reported, THIS code is sequenced first, ahead of it.

Common coding questions

Can E25 be billed directly?

No. E25 (Adrenogenital disorders) is a non-billable ICD-10-CM category code. A more specific billable subcode must be selected based on clinical documentation.
