2025 ICD-10-CM code C90.01

Multiple myeloma in remission.

Use this code only when the multiple myeloma is in remission. For active disease or relapse, use appropriate codes (C90.00 or C90.02).

Medical necessity for ongoing monitoring and potential future treatment is based on the possibility of relapse. Continued surveillance is essential for early detection and intervention if the disease returns.

Diagnosis involves history, physical exam, bone marrow biopsy, blood tests (CBC, CRP, ESR), kidney function tests, and imaging (CT, MRI, PET). Treatment may include observation, stem cell transplant, radiation, surgery, or chemotherapy.

In simple words: This code is used when multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer, is in remission. This means the symptoms are gone, but the cancer might come back.

This code signifies multiple myeloma, a cancer of plasma cells in the bone marrow, which is currently in remission.Remission indicates that the signs and symptoms of the disease have disappeared, but the cancer can return.

Example 1: A patient with a history of multiple myeloma who has completed treatment and is currently showing no signs or symptoms of the disease., A patient initially diagnosed with multiple myeloma achieves remission after undergoing chemotherapy and stem cell transplant. , A patient with multiple myeloma has a follow-up appointment after treatment.Blood tests and imaging show no evidence of active disease, indicating remission.

Documentation should include evidence of prior multiple myeloma diagnosis, treatment details, and current clinical findings supporting remission status, such as blood work, bone marrow biopsy results, and imaging reports.
