The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.

BRCA1 and/or 2 positive results are assigned either ICD-10-CM code Z15. 01 Genetic susceptibility to malignant neoplasm of breast or Z15. 02 Genetic susceptibility to malignant neoplasm of ovary, depending on family history.
A positive test result indicates that a person has inherited a known harmful variant in BRCA1 or BRCA2 (these are typically called “pathogenic” or “likely pathogenic” variants on laboratory test reports) and has an increased risk of developing certain cancers.
Family history of carrier of genetic disease The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM Z84. 81 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Mutations in the BRCA1 gene are associated with an increased risk of breast cancer in both men and women, as well as several other types of cancer. These mutations are present in every cell in the body and can be passed from one generation to the next.
Differences Between BRCA1 and BRCA2 Both mutations increase the risk of ovarian cancer, as well as pancreatic cancer. A BRCA1 mutation can also increase the risk of cervical, uterine, and colon cancer, while BRCA2 can increase the likelihood of stomach, gallbladder, and bile duct cancer, plus melanoma.
Women who have a BRCA1 or BRCA2 genetic mutation are at an increased risk of breast, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers. Men who have a BRCA1 or BRCA2 genetic mutation are at an increased risk of prostate, pancreatic, and breast cancers.
39 (Encounter for other screening for malignant neoplasm of breast). Z12. 39 is the correct code to use when employing any other breast cancer screening technique (besides mammogram) and is generally used with breast MRIs.
Codes from category Z15 should not be used as principal or first-listed codes.
ICD-10 code Z15. 01 for Genetic susceptibility to malignant neoplasm of breast is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
The most common BRCA1 mutations are c. 4097-2A>G (BIC: 4216-2A>G), c.
A positive test result means that you have a mutation in one of the breast cancer genes, BRCA1 or BRCA2, and therefore a much higher risk of developing breast cancer or ovarian cancer compared with someone who doesn't have the mutation. But a positive result doesn't mean you're certain to develop cancer.
Sometimes, changes or “mutations” occur that prevent genes from doing their job properly. Certain mutations in the BRCA genes make cells more likely to divide and change rapidly, which can lead to cancer. All women have BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, but only some women have mutations in those genes.

Unless you deal with the tests for breast cancer (BRCA), estrogen receptor (ER)/progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2) — or have gone through a diagnosis of breast cancer or know someone who has — you may not be familiar with them and their use in diagnosing and treating breast cancer.
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)
Immunoactivity detects the presence of Her2 protein on breast cancer tissue.
Triple Negative. Triple negative breast cancers (ER-/PR-/Her2-) occur in 10-20 percent of all breast cancers (and are more common in BRCA1 mutations). Women with triple negative breast cancer have tumor cells that do not contain receptors for ER, PR, or Her2. These tumors are treated with a combination of therapies, including surgery, chemotherapy, ...
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 ...
One study found that approximately 72 percent of women who inherit a BRCA1 mutation and approximately 69 percent of women who inherit a BRCA2 mutation will develop breast cancer by the age of 80. The following CPT® codes can be used for BRCA1 and 2 mutation testing:
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.
