Where these codes group

134 of the 157 codes in K55-K64 group to MMTA - Gastrointestinal tract and Genitourinary system, but the range is not uniform — it spreads across 2 clinical groups. A further 5 are assigned no clinical group at all, which means a 30-day period cannot be grouped from them.

Code families in K55-K64

One page per three-character family: every code in it, whether it can lead a claim, its clinical group and comorbidity subgroup.
