It is one of the 24 codes in category J84 (Other interstitial pulmonary diseases). The Alphabetic Index lists it under 12 entries. Its coding notes include a Code first instruction, a Use additional code instruction, a Code also instruction, 8 Excludes1 entries and 10 Excludes2 entries.
Code first
If the underlying condition listed here is present and known, sequence it first.
- , if applicable:
- poisoning due to drug or toxin (T51-T65 with fifth or sixth character to indicate intent), for toxic pneumonopathy
- underlying cause of pneumonopathy, if known
Use additional code
Add the listed code as a secondary code, if known.
- code, for adverse effect, to identify drug (T36-T50 with fifth or sixth character 5), if drug-induced
Also from chapter/block level (7 notes)
Code also
Two codes may be needed to describe the condition. This note gives no sequencing order.
- , if applicable, associated condition
Excludes1
Not coded here. The listed conditions generally should not be reported together.
Excludes2
Not included here. Both codes may be reported if the patient has both conditions.
- lung diseases due to external agents (J60-J70)

Conditions classified to this code.
- Endogenous lipoid pneumonia
- Interstitial pneumonitis
- Non-specific interstitial pneumonitis NOS
- Organizing pneumonia NOS
Notes
Also from chapter/block level (1 note)
- When a respiratory condition is described as occurring in more than one site and is not specifically indexed, it should be classified to the lower anatomic site (e.g. tracheobronchitis to bronchitis in J40).
