N49.3 Fournier's Gangrene

We used this code for a female and the payer came back and said that the code was to be used for Males only! The manual doesn't state this? Can someone help?

  • The N49 family is "inflammatory disorders of male genital organs, not elsewhere classified"

    so N49.0- N49.9 will all be male specific codes.
