This "Present On Admission" (POA) indicator is recorded on CMS form 4010A. Z17.0 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of estrogen receptor positive status [ER+]. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.

Put Your Breast Cancer Coding to the Test. Based on the patient’s history and pathology results, she was assigned as stage I. Using the pathology results, you would report the diagnosis using ICD-10-CM codes Z17.0 and D05.10 Intraductal carcinoma in situ of unspecified breast, and the test with CPT® 88360 x 3.
Listen to pronunciation. (ES-truh-jin reh-SEP-ter PAH-zih-tiv) Describes cells that have a protein that binds to the hormone estrogen. Cancer cells that are estrogen receptor positive may need estrogen to grow.
When breast cancer cells test positive for estrogen receptors, it's called estrogen receptor-positive (ER-positive) breast cancer. It means that estrogen is fueling the growth of the cancer. It's one of several important characteristics of breast cancer that help determine the best treatment options.

About 80% of all breast cancers are “ER-positive.” That means the cancer cells grow in response to the hormone estrogen. About 65% of these are also “PR-positive.” They grow in response to another hormone, progesterone.
Triple-negative breast cancer is invasive breast cancer that is estrogen receptor-negative, progesterone receptor-negative, and HER2-negative.

Screening is the testing for disease or disease precursors in asymptomatic individuals so that early detection and treatment can be provided for those who test positive for the disease.
Correct Coding Guidelines states to use Z12. 11 as primary diagnosis and Z80. 0 as secondary for family histories.
Code Z33. 1 This code is a secondary code only for use when the pregnancy is in no way complicating the reason for visit. Otherwise, a code from the obstetric chapter is required.

The estrogen activation of ER in ER-positive breast cancers enhances their aggressiveness, while the activation of exogenously introduced ERs into aggressive ER-negative cells diminishes their aggressiveness.
Metastatic Breast Cancer The most serious and dangerous breast cancers – wherever they arise or whatever their type – are metastatic cancers. Metastasis means that the cancer has spread from the place where it started into other tissues distant from the original tumor site.
Grade 1 has the best prognosis. Some breast cancers need your body's natural hormones estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PR) to grow. These cancer cells have proteins on the outside of their walls called hormone receptors.

In most cases the manifestation codes will have in the code title, "in diseases classified elsewhere.". Codes with this title are a component of the etiology/manifestation convention. The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code.
Breast cancer can be coded by accounting the stage of the cancer. Breast cancer staging is based on the TNM system developed by the American Joint Committee on Cancer from seven key pieces of information: 1 Size of the tumor (T) 2 How many lymph nodes has the cancer spread to (N) 3 Has the cancer metastasized to other sites (M) 4 Is ER positive (ER) 5 Is PR positive (PR) 6 Is Her2 positive (Her2) 7 Grade of cancer (G)
Breast cancer can be coded by accounting the stage of the cancer. Breast cancer staging is based on the TNM system developed by the American Joint Committee on Cancer from seven key pieces of information:
Immunoactivity detects the presence of Her2 protein on breast cancer tissue.
BRCA1 and 2 are genes that have been identified in the production of tumor suppressor proteins. These genes are integral to repairing damaged deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Mutations of these genes increase the risk of breast and ovarian cancers. One study found that approximately 72 percent of women who inherit a BRCA1 mutation ...
Other gene mutations include TP53, CDH1, and CHEK2, associated with breast cancer and RAD51C, RAD51D, and STK11, associated with an increased risk for ovarian cancer. Biomarkers such as ER, PR, and Her2 can be prognostic, predictive, or both. Prognostic markers are associated with a patient’s overall clinical outcome.
A positive result generally triggers the use of hormonal therapy. ER and PR are weak prognostic markers, but strong predictive indicators. ER/PR positive cancers are responsive to endocrine therapies such as tamoxifen. Endocrine therapy is highly effective and relatively non-toxic.
Breast cancer cells have both estrogen and progesterone receptors. Breast cancer cells have only estrogen receptors. Breast cancer cells have only progesterone receptors. Breast cancer cells have neither estrogen nor progesterone receptors. A positive result generally triggers the use of hormonal therapy.

A “code also” note instructs that two codes may be required to fully describe a condition, but this note does not provide sequencing direction. The sequencing depends on the circumstances of the encounter.
