ICD-10 Code A30.8 – Other forms of leprosy (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code A30.8 – Other forms of leprosy
What it is
A30.8 is used for leprosy that does not fit the specific leprosy categories in ICD-10-CM. It identifies a documented form of Hansen disease when the chart states another type or a mixed presentation.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Leprosy may involve skin lesions, sensory loss, peripheral nerve involvement, or other findings consistent with Hansen disease.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents “other forms of leprosy,” “other leprosy,” or a specific leprosy presentation not classified elsewhere. It may also apply when the record confirms leprosy but does not support a more specific ICD-10-CM subtype. Check documentation for the exact wording.
Do not use for
Do not use A30.8 if the record supports a more specific leprosy code, such as tuberculoid, borderline, lepromatous, or indeterminate disease. Do not assign it for suspected leprosy without confirmation.
Coding tip
Code the most specific leprosy type documented, and use A30.8 only when the provider’s wording supports “other” or an unspecified nonclassifiable form.
