Calculus of GB and bile duct w cholecyst, unsp, w/o obst

This code signifies the presence of gallstones (calculi) within both the gallbladder and the bile ducts, accompanied by inflammation of the gallbladder (cholecystitis). Importantly, the documentation does not specify the type of cholecystitis and explicitly states that there is no obstruction of the bile flow.

Use this code when the patient presents with symptoms and diagnostic findings consistent with cholelithiasis in both the gallbladder and bile ducts, along with cholecystitis, and the physician's documentation confirms the absence of obstruction. This code is appropriate when the specific type of cholecystitis (e.g., acute, chronic) is not documented.

• Do not use this code if obstruction is documented; instead, refer to codes within the K80.3-K80.5 series.
• If the type of cholecystitis (e.g., acute, chronic) is specified, select a more specific code from the K80.1 or K80.2 subcategories.
• Ensure documentation clearly states the presence of calculi in both the gallbladder and bile duct, along with cholecystitis and the absence of obstruction.
