D37.8 ICD-10-CM Code: Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of other specified digestive organs

D37.8 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for neoplasm of uncertain behavior of other specified digestive organs. A growth in other parts of the digestive system (not liver, gallbladder, or bile ducts) that cannot yet be classified as cancer or benign. The specific organ involved should be documented. D37.8 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for neoplasms (c00-d49), within the section covering neoplasms of uncertain behavior, polycythemia vera and myelodysplastic syndromes (d37-d48).

D37.8 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to a payment HCC under the CMS-HCC V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC risk adjustment models. It can be reported on Medicare Advantage encounter data submissions but it does not contribute to a beneficiary's RAF score and therefore does not affect risk-adjusted payments to the plan.

This is a catch-all code for digestive organs not covered by D37.0-D37.6; always specify the organ site in documentation.
