ICD-10 Code D86 – Sarcoidosis (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D86 – Sarcoidosis
What it is
D86 identifies sarcoidosis, a multisystem inflammatory disease marked by granuloma formation. It is used when the record documents sarcoidosis without a more specific organ or subtype code.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Common findings include pulmonary involvement, lymph node enlargement, skin lesions, or eye symptoms, but the specific presentation should be confirmed in the chart.
When to use this code
Use D86 when the provider documents sarcoidosis and does not specify a more detailed ICD-10-CM code. It may also apply when the condition is confirmed but the affected site or organ system is not clearly stated. Check documentation for any organ-specific code selection.
Do not use for
Do not use D86 for other granulomatous diseases or for suspected sarcoidosis without confirmation. If the record names a specific manifestation or organ involvement, code that documented detail instead.
Coding tip
Review the note for the involved organ system before assigning D86, because sarcoidosis often requires a more specific code.
