ICD-10 Code D84.8 – Other specified immunodeficiencies (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Other specified immunodeficiencies is D84.8.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D84.8 – Other specified immunodeficiencies

What it is

D84.8 is used for an immunodeficiency that is documented, but does not fit a more specific ICD-10 category. It covers other specified defects of immune function when the record names the condition clearly.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Patients may have recurrent or unusual infections, poor immune response, or a known immune defect that is not otherwise classified.

When to use this code

Use D84.8 when the provider documents a specific immunodeficiency that is not captured by another code in the D84 series. It is appropriate when the diagnosis is established and the chart supports a distinct immune disorder. If the record is vague, check documentation before coding.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for unspecified immune disorders when a more specific code is available. Also avoid it for acquired immunodeficiency states that have their own ICD-10 code.

Coding tip

Code the most specific immunodeficiency documented, and query if the record only says “immune deficiency” or “immunocompromised.”
