T82.855

Stenosis of coronary artery stent

Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

A category header for its whole life, FY2017 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 3 more specific codes instead:

  • T82.855A Stenosis of coronary artery stent, initial encounter
  • T82.855D Stenosis of coronary artery stent, subsequent encounter
  • T82.855S Stenosis of coronary artery stent, sequela

This code requires a seventh character. See the rule below.

How CDC's index refers to this code
