Don't overlook these Excludes1 notes. If a patient has leukorrhea, she has whitish, yellowish, or greenish discharge from the vagina. The discharge can be normal or the sign of an infection. Right now, you should report this condition with 623.5 (Leukorrhea not specified as infective). When you switch to ICD-10 in October 2013, you should report N98.8 (Other specified noninflammatory disorders of vagina) instead. These two codes have a one-to-one correlation, but you should examine how the descriptors differ. Documentation: Here's how you will arrive at these codes from the Alphabetic Index (specific to vaginal discharge): Discharge (from) - vaginal N89.8 Leukorrhea N89.8 Coder tips: Under N89.8 itself, you'll see another Excludes1 note that forbids you from reporting this code with current obstetric trauma (O70-, O71.4, O71.7, O71.8) and old laceration involving muscles of pelvic floor (N81.8).
