U07.0 ICD-10-CM Code: Vaping-related disorder

Billing Status: YES. This is a valid, specific, and billable ICD-10-CM reference.

Coding at a Glance

Tabular directives
5 inclusion terms · 7 use-additional codes

Inpatient Payment Groups (MS-DRG)

Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.

MS-DRGs this diagnosis helps define, as principal or secondary, per the CMS ICD-10-CM/PCS MS-DRG Definitions Manual v43, Appendix B.

  • MS-DRG 205 — OTHER RESPIRATORY SYSTEM DIAGNOSES WITH MCC (MDC 04)
  • MS-DRG 206 — OTHER RESPIRATORY SYSTEM DIAGNOSES WITHOUT MCC (MDC 04)

A diagnosis appearing in a group's logic does not by itself determine the DRG assigned to a stay; the grouper uses the full claim.

Coding instructions

Official Tabular Instructional Notes: the inclusion, exclusion and sequencing notes published for U07.0 in the official ICD-10-CM tabular list, quoted as published.

Inclusion Terms

Alternative terms the tabular list files under this code.

  • Dabbing related lung damage
  • Dabbing related lung injury
  • E-cigarette, or vaping, product use associated lung injury [EVALI]
  • Electronic cigarette related lung damage
  • Electronic cigarette related lung injury

Use Additional Code

Supplementary codes the tabular list directs you to add.

  • Use additional code to identify manifestations, such as:
  • abdominal pain (R10.84)
  • acute respiratory distress syndrome (J80)

  • lipoid pneumonia (J69.1)
  • weight loss (R63.4)

Coder workflow for U07.0

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

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).
The conditions the Use Additional Code note names
Reported with this code when documented; a conditional instruction (“if applicable”, “if known”) applies only when the record supports it.

Official instructions as workflow

  • Use Additional Code — after identifying U07.0(7 notes)

    Coding workflow: Check whether the documentation supports the additional code(s) the note names, and report them with U07.0 when it does. Where the instruction is conditional (“if applicable”, “if known”), it applies only when the record documents the condition.

Coding decision scenarios

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

Documentation: A condition the Use Additional Code note names is documented.

Coding question: Is a second code reported with U07.0?

Path: Review the Use Additional Code note and the code it names.

Reason: The additional code is reported when the record documents the condition; a conditional instruction applies only when its condition is met (Guidelines I.A.13).

ReviewR10.84, J80, R19.7, J70.4, J69.1, R63.4

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

Vaping-related disorder is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code (U07.0).

e. Vaping-related disorders For patients presenting with condition(s) related to vaping, assign code U07.0, Vaping-related disorder, as the principal diagnosis. For lung injury due to vaping, assign only code U07.0. Assign additional codes for other manifestations, such as acute respiratory failure (subcategory J96.0-) or pneumonitis (code J68.0).

MS-DRG Grouper Relationships (FY2026)

Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.

FY2026 MS-DRG: not on the CMS CC/MCC list — as a secondary diagnosis this code does not change MS-DRG severity for that release.

Named in the grouper logic of 2 MS-DRGs: DRG 205 (MDC 04), DRG 206 (MDC 04).

From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual (Appendices B and C). Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
