What proctocolitis ICD codes can I use?
If you’re looking for proctocolitis ICD codes to use but can’t seem to find any, that’s because proctocolitis is often associated with proctitis. Given this, the ICD-10 codes you’re looking for will have something to do with proctitis, colitis, and/or rectosigmoiditis.
Here are some ICD-10 codes that you can use:
- K51.20 - Ulcerative (chronic) proctitis without complications
This ICD-10 code is meant to be used on a person confirmed to have an ulcerative proctitis that doesn’t have any complications. Since proctocolitis is associated with proctitis, you can use this ID-10 code on patients with proctocolitis.
- K51.30 - Ulcerative (chronic) rectosigmoiditis without complications
This ICD-10 code is meant to be used on a person confirmed to have an ulcerative rectosigmoiditis with no complications. Proctocolitis is also associated with this.
- K51.314 - Ulcerative (chronic) rectosigmoiditis with abscess
This is the same as Item 2, but there is a complication: there’s an abscess.
- K52.82 - Eosinophilic colitis
This ICD-10 code is meant to be used on someone confirmed to have eosinophilic colitis. This is a rare colon disease characterized by large numbers of white blood cells irritating or injuring the colon. Proctocolitis is also associated with this.
- K62.89 - Other specified diseases of anus and rectum
This ICD-10 code is meant to be used on a person confirmed to have a disease related to their anus and rectum. You can use this ICD-10 code for such diseases that result in proctocolitis.
