Allan how would you code a neuroendocrine tumor arising from the lung? when I search this is the code that comes up C7A. 1 - Malignant poorly differentiated neuroendocrine tumors. ICD-10-CM., we do not have this as an option, thank you.

For OUR purposes, however, rather than include the C7A subcodes for such tumors in every body part, we should code them by LINKING our existing C7A.0 code (which is Malignant carcinoid tumor) with the code for malignancy in the body part, in this case C34 Lung and/or bronchus, primary malignancy.
