Relevant family history includes more than mother, sister, daughter#N#Relevant family history for breast cancer includes more than just breast cancer in mother, sister, or daughter. If you look at the Tyrer-Cuzick model (which doctors commonly use to determine breast cancer risk), it includes mother, sisters, and daughters but also includes paternal grandmother, maternal grandmother, paternal aunts, maternal aunts, half sisters, cousins, and nieces (model is at http://www.ems-trials.org/riskevaluator/ and you can see family history screenshot in the screenshots and examples tab). I believe it would be correct to code Z80.3 if the family history is in a 1st or 2nd degree relative, as supported by icd10data.com and this model, but of course I could be mistaken. I wouldn't code it for any blood relative, no matter how distant, but would code it for those blood relatives that medical providers and risk prediction models are currently looking at to try to determine a woman's risk. If you are still not sure, I would query the physicians or facility that you are coding for and ask what they consider to be a relevant family history and when you should code Z80.3.
