ICD-10-CM Code For Functional Disorders Of Polymorphonuclear Neutrophils: Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) code group D71 includes functional disorders of polymorphonuclear neutrophils, encompassing inherited or acquired defects in neutrophil function that predispose to recurrent infections and inflammatory complications. These ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes are used to document clinical scenarios involving impaired neutrophil chemotaxis, phagocytosis, oxidative burst, or other functional abnormalities, capturing disease severity, infection history, and immune system involvement. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-CM D71 group supports proper claim adjudication, complete clinical documentation, and appropriate reimbursement.

ICD-10-CM D71: Functional Disorders Of Polymorphonuclear Neutrophils Overview
This group includes diagnoses describing functional defects of polymorphonuclear neutrophils, a key component of innate immunity that affects infection defense and inflammatory responses. These conditions target the hematologic and immune systems and can present with recurrent or severe infections, impaired wound healing, or unusual inflammatory findings. Accurate coding matters for clinical communication and for correct reimbursement determination because it documents disease severity and underlying immune dysfunction.
