What is icd-10 r10.11?

ICD-10 code R10.11 is used to describe the diagnosis of "Pain localized to the right upper quadrant". This code falls under Chapter 18 of the ICD-10, which covers symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified.

Some common conditions that may result in pain localized to the right upper quadrant include liver diseases (such as hepatitis or liver cirrhosis), gallbladder diseases (such as cholecystitis or gallstones), and gastrointestinal issues (such as peptic ulcers or gastritis).

It is important for healthcare providers to accurately code and document the specific location and type of pain in order to provide appropriate treatment and care for the patient. Proper coding also ensures accurate billing and reimbursement for medical services.
