Person with feared health complaint in whom no diagnosis is made. Z71.1 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Occasionally we will have a triage where the concern is not mental health related and no diagnosis is warranted, but a write-up with a diagnostic code is required for paperwork. Our computer system lists no diagnosis for mental health issues as Z03.89. I don't know where the coders got that information.
V Codes (in the DSM-5 and ICD-9) and Z Codes (in the ICD-10), also known as Other Conditions That May Be a Focus of Clinical Attention, addresses issues that are a focus of clinical attention or affect the diagnosis, course, prognosis, or treatment of a patient's mental disorder. However, these codes are not mental disorders.
Looking at the DSM-5 there is some helpful information at the back of the book with codes for many non-diagnoses. Z71.9 would be code for other counseling or consultation.

ICD-9 was updated to ICD-10 coding on October 1st, 2015. Coding changed from the use of ICD-9 diagnoses to ICD-10 diagnoses to match the recent DSM5 update in 2013, enumerating many more diagnoses.
