ICD-10 Code C83.8A – Other non-follicular lymphoma, in remission (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code C83.8A – Other non-follicular lymphoma, in remission
What it is
This code identifies a history of other specified non-follicular lymphoma that is currently in remission. Use it when the lymphoma is not active, but the diagnosis remains clinically relevant.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Remission usually means there is no clear evidence of active lymphoma, though the patient may still need surveillance for recurrence or late effects.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents non-follicular lymphoma in remission and the specific lymphoma type is not better captured by another code. It fits follow-up visits, surveillance care, or problem lists when the disease is inactive. Do not use it if documentation indicates active disease or relapse.
Do not use for
Do not use for active lymphoma, suspected lymphoma, or unspecified remission status. Check documentation if the record does not clearly state remission.
Coding tip
Confirm the exact lymphoma wording and remission status in the note before coding.
