Before you code M11.14

  1. M11.14 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).

Choose the right path

  1. Does the documentation support one of the more specific codes beneath M11.14?
    Yes → Select that code and continue the checks below on its own page.
    No → M11.14 cannot be reported as written; query for the specificity its subcategory needs.

Consider M11.14. 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).
Anatomical site
At the most specific level the record states; a site the classification separates cannot be assumed from a procedure or a measurement.

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.

Relationships are read from this code's own official notes, its laterality siblings and its encounter family; the wording of each distinction is MedCoder editorial, and the documentation named in each “what moves you there” line is the official note phrase or sibling title itself.

Referenced by 1 Excludes1 note: E83.5 — Disorders of calcium metabolism (via M11.-).

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

Referenced by 1 Excludes2 note: M24.1 — Other articular cartilage disorders (via M11.1.-).

These codes’ tabular lists name this diagnosis as distinct — both may be reported when both are documented.
