A functional defect characterized by reduced total lung capacity (TLC) not associated with abnormalities of expiratory airflow or airway resistance.
According to Coding Clinic, chronic restrictive lung disease is assigned to code 518.89, Other diseases of lung, not elsewhere classified. It also says that chronic restrictive lung disease “is an ill-defined term, however, and should be used only when the condition cannot be described more specifically.”
ICD-10-CM J41. 8 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0): 190 Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with mcc.
ICD-10 code R93. 89 for Abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging of other specified body structures is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
Unlike obstructive lung diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which show a normal or increased total lung capacity (TLC), restrictive disease are associated with a decreased TLC.
9 – Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Unspecified.
Obstructive lung diseases include conditions that make it hard to exhale all the air in the lungs. People with restrictive lung disease have difficulty fully expanding their lungs with air. Obstructive and restrictive lung disease share the same main symptom: shortness of breath with exertion.
COPD With Acute Bronchitis A diagnosis of COPD and acute bronchitis is classified to code 491.22. It is not necessary to assign code 466.0 (acute bronchitis) with 491.22. Code 491.22 is also assigned if the physician documents acute bronchitis with COPD exacerbation.
If the documentation supports that the patient has a specific type of asthma documented and COPD, both codes could be reported. An example would be documentation in the record is COPD and moderate persistent asthma.
For example, Z12. 31 (Encounter for screening mammogram for malignant neoplasm of breast) is the correct code to use when you are ordering a routine mammogram for a patient. However, coders are coming across many routine mammogram orders that use Z12. 39 (Encounter for other screening for malignant neoplasm of breast).
Other nonspecific abnormal finding of lung field The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM R91. 8 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Benign neoplasm of unspecified bronchus and lung D14. 30 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM D14. 30 became effective on October 1, 2021.

Intrinsic restrictive lung diseases usually result from inflammation and scarring of lung tissue. The cause may be interstitial lung disease. This is an umbrella term for a large group of diseases that cause scarring of the lungs.
Obstructive lung diseases include conditions that make it hard to exhale all the air in the lungs. People with restrictive lung disease have difficulty fully expanding their lungs with air.
The Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries is a list of ICD-10 codes, organized "head to toe" into chapters and sections with coding notes and guidance for inclusions, exclusions, descriptions and more. The following references are applicable to the code R94.2:
The Index to Diseases and Injuries is an alphabetical listing of medical terms, with each term mapped to one or more ICD-10 code (s). The following references for the code R94.2 are found in the index:
The following clinical terms are approximate synonyms or lay terms that might be used to identify the correct diagnosis code:
When you breathe, your lungs take in oxygen from the air and deliver it to the bloodstream. The cells in your body need oxygen to work and grow. During a normal day, you breathe nearly 25,000 times. People with lung disease have difficulty breathing. Millions of people in the U.S. have lung disease.
