Infection and inflammatory reaction due to indwelling urethral catheter
Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.
This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.
Submit one of these 3 more specific codes instead:
- T83.511A Infection and inflammatory reaction due to indwelling urethral catheter, initial encounter
- T83.511D Infection and inflammatory reaction due to indwelling urethral catheter, subsequent encounter
- T83.511S Infection and inflammatory reaction due to indwelling urethral catheter, sequela
This code requires a seventh character. See the rule below.

Official coding rules
Published by CDC for FY2027. A rule attached to a category binds every code beneath it, so the rules inherited from this code's ancestors are shown with the code they come from.
Inherited from T83 Complications of genitourinary prosthetic devices, implants and grafts
Seventh character required
- The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from category T83
Excludes2 - not included here
- failure and rejection of transplanted organs and tissue (T86.-)
Inherited from the T80-T88 section Complications of surgical and medical care, not elsewhere classified (T80-T88)
Excludes2 - not included here
- any encounters with medical care for postprocedural conditions in which no complications are present, such as:
- artificial opening status (Z93.-)
- closure of external stoma (Z43.-)
- fitting and adjustment of external prosthetic device (Z44.-)
- burns and corrosions from local applications and irradiation (T20-T32)

- mechanical complication of respirator [ventilator] (J95.850)
- poisoning and toxic effects of drugs and chemicals (T36-T65 with fifth or sixth character 1-4 or 6)
- postprocedural fever (R50.82)
- specified complications classified elsewhere, such as:
- cerebrospinal fluid leak from spinal puncture (G97.0)
- colostomy malfunction (K94.0-)
- disorders of fluid and electrolyte imbalance (E86-E87)
- functional disturbances following cardiac surgery (I97.0-I97.1)

- postmastectomy lymphedema syndrome (I97.2)
- postsurgical blind-loop syndrome (K91.2)
- ventilator associated pneumonia (J95.851)
Use additional code
- code for adverse effect, if applicable, to identify drug (T36-T50 with fifth or sixth character 5)
- code(s) to identify the specified condition resulting from the complication
- code to identify devices involved and details of circumstances (Y62-Y82)
How CDC's index refers to this code
Wording from the official alphabetic index. Much of it appears nowhere in the code description, which is why a search for the everyday phrase so often finds nothing.
