Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ICD-10 code for immunization not carried out because of patient refusal?
The ICD-10-CM code for immunization not carried out because of patient refusal is Z28.21. The full clinical description is "Immunization not carried out because of patient refusal". Z28.21 is a billable/specific code that can be used on insurance claims and medical billing.
What does ICD-10 code Z28.21 mean?
ICD-10-CM code Z28.21 represents “Immunization not carried out because of patient refusal”. It is classified under Chapter 22: Factors Influencing Health Status and Contact With Health Services and is a billable/specific code that can be used on a claim.
Is Z28.21 a billable code?
Yes, Z28.21 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code and can be used to indicate a diagnosis on a medical claim.
What chapter is Z28.21 in?
Z28.21 is in Chapter 22: Factors Influencing Health Status and Contact With Health Services (codes Z00-Z99).
What SNOMED CT codes does Z28.21 map to?
Z28.21 maps to 35 SNOMED CT concepts: 1193582005, 1145033000, 1145032005, 1157118003, 1162649002, and 30 more. SNOMED CT is a clinical terminology used in electronic health records.
What are the UMLS CUIs for Z28.21?
Z28.21 is linked to 1 UMLS Concept Unique Identifier: C2910677. The UMLS (Unified Medical Language System) integrates multiple biomedical vocabularies maintained by the U.S. National Library of Medicine.
How does Z28.21 relate to ICF functioning codes?
ICF (International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health) codes describe how conditions like immunization not carried out because of patient refusal affect a person's functioning: body functions, activities, participation, and environmental factors. AutoICD provides ICF Core Sets for 12+ conditions and can map clinical text to ICF categories automatically. Browse the ICF directory to explore functioning codes.
What is the ICD-11 equivalent of Z28.21?
There is no direct ICD-11 mapping available for Z28.21 in the WHO crosswalk tables. This may mean the concept is classified differently in ICD-11. Use the ICD-10 to ICD-11 converter to search for related codes.
