Other specified complications of genitourinary prosthetic devices, implants and grafts

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, FY2016 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 7 more specific codes instead:

T83.81 Embolism due to genitourinary prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (also a header)
T83.82 Fibrosis due to genitourinary prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (also a header)
T83.83 Hemorrhage due to genitourinary prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (also a header)
T83.84 Pain due to genitourinary prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (also a header)
T83.85 Stenosis due to genitourinary prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (also a header)
T83.86 Thrombosis due to genitourinary prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (also a header)
T83.89 Other specified complication of genitourinary prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (also a header)

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

What has happened to this code

Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.

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
