Rationale: ICD-10-CM guideline I.B.11 states to reference the ICD-10-CM Alphabetic
Index to determine if the condition has a subentry for impending or threatened and also
reference main term entries for Impending and Threatened. If the subterms are listed,
assign the given code. If the subterms are not listed, code the existing underlying
condition(s) and not the condition described as impending or threatened. Look in the
Alphabetic Index for Impending. There is not a subterm for menopause; therefore, the
symptoms are coded. Look for Insomnia (organic) which directs the coder to G47.00.

, Next, look for Upset/stomach which directs the coder to K30. Verify code selection in
the Tabular List.
