M40.294 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2018/2019 edition of ICD-10-CM M40.294 became effective on October 1, 2018.
For such conditions, ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code.

Postural kyphosis, or postural roundback, is thoracic kyphosis greater than 50 degrees with normal-shaped vertebrae. This type of kyphosis is flexible and often improves with exercises.
Lordosis (also known as swayback) is when the lower back, above the buttocks, curves inward too much, causing the child's abdomen to protrude and buttocks to stick out. Kyphosis is when the upper spine curves too far outward, forming a hump on the upper back.
Kyphosis is a spinal disorder in which an excessive curve of the spine results in an abnormal rounding of the upper back. The condition is sometimes known as roundback or — in the case of a severe curve — as hunchback.
Structural kyphosis is further divided into two types:Primary Structural Kyphosis: This type of kyphosis isn't caused by another condition. One type of primary structural kyphosis is congenital kyphosis. ... Secondary Structural Kyphosis: This type of kyphosis is caused by another condition.
The three most common types of kyphosis are postural kyphosis, Scheuermann's kyphosis and congenital kyphosis.
Though the conditions may be similar, they aren't exactly the same. Scoliosis is a sideways curve of your spine — often taking the shape of the letter 'S' or 'C'. Kyphosis is more of a forward rounding of the back, which leads to a hunchback or slouching posture.
The spine's natural curvatures bend inwards, towards the body's center, or outwards, away from the body's center. Lordosis refers to the inward curvatures of the spine that characterize the cervical and lumbar sections, while kyphosis refers to the outward spinal curvature of the thoracic spine.

Poor posture in childhood, such as slouching, leaning back in chairs and carrying heavy schoolbags, can cause the ligaments and muscles that support the vertebrae to stretch. This can pull the thoracic vertebrae out of their normal position, resulting in kyphosis.
An X-ray can usually confirm the diagnosis and determine the cause of the kyphosis. Further scans are usually only required if complex treatment, such as surgery, is being planned, or if you have additional symptoms that suggest your nervous system has been affected, such as numbness in your arms or legs.
As described above, the normal thoracic spine can has a curvature, or kyphosis, of between 20 to 40 degrees. A greater (or lesser) degree of curve is considered a spinal deformity. When the thoracic portion of the spine curves 45 degrees or more, it is considered a problematic type of thoracic kyphosis.
