INTRODUCTION
Chapters 16-21 of the ICD-10-CM codes (2012 version) will be reviewed in this last of
three introductory courses which discusses the new diagnosis codes that will be
implemented on October 1, 2014*.
*NOTE: On 3/27/2014, Congress voted to delay implementation of ICD-10 code
sets until October 1, 2015.
The NCCT CE courses Introduction to ICD-10-CM Codes: Part 1 and Introduction to
ICD-10-CM Codes: Part 2 should be completed before this course. The Part 1
introduction course reviews the structure and conventions of ICD-10-CM codes which
assists with the understanding of the content presented in this course. The Part 2
introduction course provides information on Chapters 1-15 of the ICD-10-CM Tabular
List.
CHAPTER REVIEW
The following table identifies diseases and injuries found in Chapters 16-21 of the ICD10-CM Tabular List. Associated codes and examples of codes are included. The
examples of codes should be reviewed with attention placed on code structure and
increased specificity. As discussed in CE course Introduction to ICD-10-CM: Part 1,
ICD-10-CM codes are structured as follows.
Combination of letters and numbers that can go to as many as 7 characters
 Characters 1-3: Category
o First character is alpha
o Characters 2 and 3 are numeric
 Characters 4-6: Etiology, anatomic site, severity, or other clinical detail such as
laterality
o Can be alpha or numeric
 Character 7: Extension (initial encounter, subsequent encounter, sequela, etc.)
o Can be alpha or numeric

CODING GUIDELINES: CHAPTERS 16-21
The following are coding guidelines for ICD-10-CM that come from the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). This information is from the CMS website
(www.cms.gov) and it is in the public domain, available for downloading and use without

ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Narrative changes appear in bold text
Items underlined have been moved within the guidelines since the 2011 version
Italics are used to indicate revisions to heading changes
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the National Center for Health
Statistics (NCHS), two departments within the U.S. Federal Government’s Department of Health
and Human Services (DHHS) provide the following guidelines for coding and reporting using
the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM).
These guidelines should be used as a companion document to the official version of the ICD-10CM as published on the NCHS website. The ICD-10-CM is a morbidity classification published
by the United States for classifying diagnoses and reason for visits in all health care settings.
The ICD-10-CM is based on the ICD-10, the statistical classification of disease published by the
World Health Organization (WHO).
These guidelines have been approved by the four organizations that make up t he Cooperating
Parties for the ICD-10-CM: the American Hospital Association (AHA), the American Health
Information Management Association (AHIMA), CMS, and NCHS.
These guidelines are a set of rules that have been developed to accompany and complement the
official conventions and instructions provided within the ICD-10-CM itself. The instructions
and conventions of the classification take precedence over guidelines. These guidelines are
based on t he coding and sequencing instructions in the Tabular List and Alphabetic Index of
ICD-10-CM, but provide additional instruction. Adherence to these guidelines when assigning
ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes is required under the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act (HIPAA). The diagnosis codes (Tabular List and Alphabetic Index) have
been adopted under HIPAA for all healthcare settings. A joint effort between the healthcare
provider and the coder is essential to achieve complete and accurate documentation, code
assignment, and reporting of diagnoses and procedures. These guidelines have been developed
to assist both the healthcare provider and the coder in identifying those diagnoses and procedures
that are to be reported. The importance of consistent, complete documentation in the medical
record cannot be overemphasized. W ithout such documentation accurate coding cannot be
achieved. The entire record should be reviewed to determine the specific reason for the
encounter and the conditions treated.
The term encounter is used for all settings, including hospital admissions. In the context of these
guidelines, the term provider is used throughout the guidelines to mean physician or any
qualified health care practitioner who is legally accountable for establishing the patient’s
diagnosis. Only this set of guidelines, approved by the Cooperating Parties, is official.
The guidelines are organized into sections. Section I includes the structure and conventions of
the classification and general guidelines that apply to the entire classification, and chapterspecific guidelines that correspond to the chapters as they are arranged in the classification.
Section II includes guidelines for selection of principal diagnosis for non-outpatient settings.
Section III includes guidelines for reporting additional diagnoses in non-outpatient settings.
Section IV is for outpatient coding and reporting. It is necessary to review all sections of the
guidelines to fully understand all of the rules and instructions needed to code properly.
16.
Chapter 16: Certain Conditions Originating in the Perinatal
Period (P00-P96)
For coding and reporting purposes the perinatal period is defined as before
birth through the 28th day following birth. The following guidelines are
provided for reporting purposes
a.
General Perinatal Rules
1)
Use of Chapter 16 Codes
Codes in this chapter are never for use on the maternal record.
Codes from Chapter 15, the obstetric chapter, are never
permitted on the newborn record. Chapter 16 codes may be
used throughout the life of the patient if the condition is still
present.
2)
Principal Diagnosis for Birth Record
When coding the birth episode in a newborn record, assign a
code from category Z38, Liveborn infants according to place of
birth and type of delivery, as the principal diagnosis. A code
from category Z38 is assigned only once, to a newborn at the
time of birth. If a newborn is transferred to another institution,
a code from category Z38 should not be used at the receiving
hospital.
A code from category Z38 is used only on the newborn record,
not on the mother’s record.
3)
Use of Codes from other Chapters with Codes from
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 59 of 113
Chapter 16
Codes from other chapters may be used with codes from
chapter 16 if the codes from the other chapters provide more
specific detail. Codes for signs and symptoms may be assigned
when a definitive diagnosis has not been established. If the
reason for the encounter is a perinatal condition, the code from
chapter 16 should be sequenced first.
4)
Use of Chapter 16 Codes after the Perinatal Period
Should a condition originate in the perinatal period, and
continue throughout the life of the patient, the perinatal code
should continue to be used regardless of the patient’s age.
5)
Birth process or community acquired conditions
If a newborn has a condition that may be either due to the birth
process or community acquired and the documentation does
not indicate which it is, the default is due to the birth process
and the code from Chapter 16 should be used. If the condition
is community-acquired, a code from Chapter 16 should not be
assigned.
6)
Code all clinically significant conditions
All clinically significant conditions noted on routine newborn
examination should be coded. A condition is clinically
significant if it requires:
 clinical evaluation; or
 therapeutic treatment; or
 diagnostic procedures; or
 extended length of hospital stay; or
 increased nursing care and/or monitoring; or
 has implications for future health care needs
Note: The perinatal guidelines listed above are the same as the
general coding guidelines for “additional diagnoses”, except
for the final point regarding implications for future health care
needs. Codes should be assigned for conditions that have been
specified by the provider as having implications for future
health care needs.
b.
Observation and Evaluation of Newborns for Suspected
Conditions not Found
Assign a code from categories P00-P04 to identify those instances
when a healthy newborn is evaluated for a suspected condition that
is determined after study not to be present. Do not use a code from
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 60 of 113
categories P00-P04 when the patient has identified signs or
symptoms of a suspected problem; in such cases, code the sign or
symptom.
c.
Coding Additional Perinatal Diagnoses
1)
Assigning codes for conditions that require treatment
Assign codes for conditions that require treatment or further
investigation, prolong the length of stay, or require resource
utilization.
2)
Codes for conditions specified as having implications
for future health care needs
Assign codes for conditions that have been specified by the
provider as having implications for future health care needs.
Note: This guideline should not be used for adult patients.
d.
Prematurity and Fetal Growth Retardation
Providers utilize different criteria in determining prematurity. A code
for prematurity should not be assigned unless it is documented.
Assignment of codes in categories P05, Disorders of newborn related
to slow fetal growth and fetal malnutrition, and P07, Disorders of
newborn related to short gestation and low birth weight, not elsewhere
classified, should be based on the recorded birth weight and estimated
gestational age. Codes from category P05 should not be assigned with
codes from category P07.
When both birth weight and gestational age are available, two codes
from category P07 should be assigned, with the code for birth weight
sequenced before the code for gestational age.
A code from P05 and codes from P07.2 and P07.3 may be used to
specify weeks of gestation as documented by the provider in the
record.
e.
Low birth weight and immaturity status
Codes from category P07, Disorders of newborn related to short
gestation and low birth weight, not elsewhere classified, are for use for
a child or adult who was premature or had a low birth weight as a
newborn and this is affecting the patient’s current health status.
See Section I.C.21. Factors influencing health status and contact with
health services, Status.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 61 of 113
f.
Bacterial Sepsis of Newborn
Category P36, Bacterial sepsis of newborn, includes congenital sepsis.
If a perinate is documented as having sepsis without documentation of
congenital or community acquired, the default is congenital and a code
from category P36 should be assigned. If the P36 code includes the
causal organism, an additional code from category B95, Streptococcus,
Staphylococcus, and Enterococcus as the cause of diseases classified
elsewhere, or B96, Other bacterial agents as the cause of diseases
classified elsewhere, should not be assigned. If the P36 code does not
include the causal organism, assign an additional code from category
B96. If applicable, use additional codes to identify severe sepsis
(R65.2-) and any associated acute organ dysfunction.
g.
Stillbirth
Code P95, Stillbirth, is only for use in institutions that maintain
separate records for stillbirths. No other code should be used with P95.
Code P95 should not be used on the mother’s record.
17.
Chapter 17: Congenital malformations, deformations, and
chromosomal abnormalities (Q00-Q99)
Assign an appropriate code(s) from categories Q00-Q99, Congenital
malformations, deformations, and chromosomal abnormalities when a
malformation/deformation or chromosomal abnormality is documented. A
malformation/deformation/or chromosomal abnormality may be the
principal/first-listed diagnosis on a record or a secondary diagnosis.
When a malformation/deformation/or chromosomal abnormality does not
have a unique code assignment, assign additional code(s) for any
manifestations that may be present.
When the code assignment specifically identifies the
malformation/deformation/or chromosomal abnormality, manifestations that
are an inherent component of the anomaly should not be coded separately.
Additional codes should be assigned for manifestations that are not an
inherent component.
Codes from Chapter 17 may be used throughout the life of the patient. If a
congenital malformation or deformity has been corrected, a personal history
code should be used to identify the history of the malformation or deformity.
Although present at birth, malformation/deformation/or chromosomal
abnormality may not be identified until later in life. Whenever the condition
is diagnosed by the physician, it is appropriate to assign a code from codes
Q00-Q99.For the birth admission, the appropriate code from category Z38,
Liveborn infants, according to place of birth and type of delivery, should be
sequenced as the principal diagnosis, followed by any congenital anomaly
codes, Q00- Q99.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 62 of 113
18.
Chapter 18: Symptoms, signs, and abnormal clinical and
laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified (R00-R99)
Chapter 18 includes symptoms, signs, abnormal results of clinical or other
investigative procedures, and ill-defined conditions regarding which no
diagnosis classifiable elsewhere is recorded. Signs and symptoms that point to
a specific diagnosis have been assigned to a category in other chapters of the
classification.
a.
Use of symptom codes
Codes that describe symptoms and signs are acceptable for reporting
purposes when a related definitive diagnosis has not been established
(confirmed) by the provider.
b.
Use of a symptom code with a definitive diagnosis code
Codes for signs and symptoms may be reported in addition to a related
definitive diagnosis when the sign or symptom is not routinely
associated with that diagnosis, such as the various signs and symptoms
associated with complex syndromes. The definitive diagnosis code
should be sequenced before the symptom code.
Signs or symptoms that are associated routinely with a disease process
should not be assigned as additional codes, unless otherwise instructed
by the classification.
c.
Combination codes that include symptoms
ICD-10-CM contains a number of combination codes that identify
both the definitive diagnosis and common symptoms of that diagnosis.
When using one of these combination codes, an additional code should
not be assigned for the symptom.
d.
Repeated falls
Code R29.6, Repeated falls, is for use for encounters when a patient
has recently fallen and the reason for the fall is being investigated.
Code Z91.81, History of falling, is for use when a patient has fallen in
the past and is at risk for future falls. When appropriate, both codes
R29.6 and Z91.81 may be assigned together.
e.
Coma scale
The coma scale codes (R40.2-) can be used in conjunction with
traumatic brain injury codes, acute cerebrovascular disease or sequelae
of cerebrovascular disease codes. These codes are primarily for use by
trauma registries, but they may be used in any setting where this
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 63 of 113
information is collected. The coma scale codes should be sequenced
after the diagnosis code(s).
These codes, one from each subcategory, are needed to complete the
scale. The 7th character indicates when the scale was recorded. The 7th
character should match for all three codes.
At a minimum, report the initial score documented on presentation at
your facility. This may be a score from the emergency medicine
technician (EMT) or in the emergency department. If desired, a
facility may choose to capture multiple coma scale scores.
Assign code R40.24, Glasgow coma scale, total score, when only
the total score is documented in the medical record and not the
individual score(s).
f.
Functional quadriplegia
Functional quadriplegia (code R53.2) is the lack of ability to use one’s
limbs or to ambulate due to extreme debility. It is not associated with
neurologic deficit or injury, and code R53.2 should not be used for
cases of neurologic quadriplegia. It should only be assigned if
functional quadriplegia is specifically documented in the medical
record.
g.
SIRS due to Non-Infectious Process
The systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) can develop as
a result of certain non-infectious disease processes, such as trauma,
malignant neoplasm, or pancreatitis. When SIRS is documented with
a noninfectious condition, and no subsequent infection is documented,
the code for the underlying condition, such as an injury, should be
assigned, followed by code R65.10, Systemic inflammatory response
syndrome (SIRS) of non-infectious origin without acute organ
dysfunction, or code R65.11, Systemic inflammatory response
syndrome (SIRS) of non-infectious origin with acute organ
dysfunction. If an associated acute organ dysfunction is documented,
the appropriate code(s) for the specific type of organ dysfunction(s)
should be assigned in addition to code R65.11. If acute organ
dysfunction is documented, but it cannot be determined if the acute
organ dysfunction is associated with SIRS or due to another condition
(e.g., directly due to the trauma), the provider should be queried.
h.
Death NOS
Code R99, Ill-defined and unknown cause of mortality, is only for use
in the very limited circumstance when a patient who has already died
is brought into an emergency department or other healthcare facility
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 64 of 113
and is pronounced dead upon arrival. It does not represent the
discharge disposition of death.
19.
Chapter 19: Injury, poisoning, and certain other consequences of
external causes (S00-T88)
a.
Application of 7th Characters in Chapter 19
Most categories in chapter 19 have a 7th character requirement for each
applicable code. Most categories in this chapter have three 7th
character values (with the exception of fractures): A, initial
encounter, D, subsequent encounter and S, sequela. Categories for
traumatic fractures have additional 7th character values.
7th character “A”, initial encounter is used while the patient is
receiving active treatment for the condition. Examples of active
treatment are: surgical treatment, emergency department encounter,
and evaluation and treatment by a new physician.
7th character “D” subsequent encounter is used for encounters after
the patient has received active treatment of the condition and is
receiving routine care for the condition during the healing or recovery
phase. Examples of subsequent care are: cast change or removal,
removal of external or internal fixation device, medication adjustment,
other aftercare and follow up visits following treatment of the injury
or condition.
The aftercare Z codes should not be used for aftercare for conditions
such as injuries or poisonings, where 7th characters are provided to
identify subsequent care. For example, for aftercare of an injury,
assign the acute injury code with the 7th character “D” (subsequent
encounter).
7th character “S”, sequela, is for use for complications or conditions
that arise as a direct result of a condition, such as scar formation after
a burn. The scars are sequelae of the burn. When using 7th character
“S”, it is necessary to use both the injury code that precipitated the
sequela and the code for the sequela itself. The “S” is added only to
the injury code, not the sequela code. The 7th character “S”
identifies the injury responsible for the sequela. The specific type of
sequela (e.g. scar) is sequenced first, followed by the injury code.
b.
Coding of Injuries
When coding injuries, assign separate codes for each injury unless a
combination code is provided, in which case the combination code is
assigned. Code T07, Unspecified multiple injuries should not be
assigned in the inpatient setting unless information for a more
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 65 of 113
specific code is not available. Traumatic injury codes (S00-T14.9) are
not to be used for normal, healing surgical wounds or to identify
complications of surgical wounds.
The code for the most serious injury, as determined by the provider
and the focus of treatment, is sequenced first.
1)
Superficial injuries
Superficial injuries such as abrasions or contusions are not
coded when associated with more severe injuries of the same
site.
2)
Primary injury with damage to nerves/blood vessels
When a primary injury results in minor damage to peripheral
nerves or blood vessels, the primary injury is sequenced first
with additional code(s) for injuries to nerves and spinal cord
(such as category S04), and/or injury to blood vessels (such as
category S15). When the primary injury is to the blood vessels
or nerves, that injury should be sequenced first.
c.
Coding of Traumatic Fractures
The principles of multiple coding of injuries should be followed in
coding fractures. Fractures of specified sites are coded individually by
site in accordance with both the provisions within categories S02, S12,
S22, S32, S42, S49, S52, S59, S62, S72, S79, S82, S89, S92 and the
level of detail furnished by medical record content.
A fracture not indicated as open or closed should be coded to closed.
A fracture not indicated whether displaced or not displaced should be
coded to displaced.
More specific guidelines are as follows:
1)
Initial vs. Subsequent Encounter for Fractures
Traumatic fractures are coded using the appropriate 7th
character for initial encounter (A, B, C) while the patient is
receiving active treatment for the fracture. Examples of active
treatment are: surgical treatment, emergency department
encounter, and evaluation and treatment by a new physician.
The appropriate 7th character for initial encounter should also
be assigned for a patient who delayed seeking treatment for the
fracture or nonunion.
Fractures are coded using the appropriate 7th character for
subsequent care for encounters after the patient has completed
active treatment of the fracture and is receiving routine care for
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 66 of 113
the fracture during the healing or recovery phase. Examples of
fracture aftercare are: cast change or removal, removal of
external or internal fixation device, medication adjustment, and
follow-up visits following fracture treatment.
Care for complications of surgical treatment for fracture repairs
during the healing or recovery phase should be coded with the
appropriate complication codes.
Care of complications of fractures, such as malunion and
nonunion, should be reported with the appropriate 7th character
for subsequent care with nonunion (K, M, N,) or subsequent
care with malunion (P, Q, R).
A code from category M80, not a traumatic fracture code,
should be used for any patient with known osteoporosis who
suffers a fracture, even if the patient had a minor fall or trauma,
if that fall or trauma would not usually break a normal, healthy
bone.
See Section I.C.13. Osteoporosis.
The aftercare Z codes should not be used for aftercare for
traumatic fractures. For aftercare of a traumatic fracture, assign
the acute fracture code with the appropriate 7th character.
2)
Multiple fractures sequencing
Multiple fractures are sequenced in accordance with the
severity of the fracture.
d.
Coding of Burns and Corrosions
The ICD-10-CM makes a distinction between burns and corrosions.
The burn codes are for thermal burns, except sunburns, that come from
a heat source, such as a fire or hot appliance. The burn codes are also
for burns resulting from electricity and radiation. Corrosions are burns
due to chemicals. The guidelines are the same for burns and
corrosions.
Current burns (T20-T25) are classified by depth, extent and by agent
(X code). Burns are classified by depth as first degree (erythema),
second degree (blistering), and third degree (full-thickness
involvement). Burns of the eye and internal organs (T26-T28) are
classified by site, but not by degree.
1)
Sequencing of burn and related condition codes
Sequence first the code that reflects the highest degree of burn
when more than one burn is present.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 67 of 113
a. When the reason for the admission or encounter is for
treatment of external multiple burns, sequence first the
code that reflects the burn of the highest degree.
b. When a patient has both internal and external burns, the
circumstances of admission govern the selection of the
principal diagnosis or first-listed diagnosis.
c. When a patient is admitted for burn injuries and other
related conditions such as smoke inhalation and/or
respiratory failure, the circumstances of admission govern
the selection of the principal or first-listed diagnosis.
2)
Burns of the same local site
Classify burns of the same local site (three-character category
level, T20-T28) but of different degrees to the subcategory
identifying the highest degree recorded in the diagnosis.
3)
Non-healing burns
Non-healing burns are coded as acute burns.
Necrosis of burned skin should be coded as a non-healed burn.
4)
Infected Burn
For any documented infected burn site, use an additional code
for the infection.
5)
Assign separate codes for each burn site
When coding burns, assign separate codes for each burn site.
Category T30, Burn and corrosion, body region unspecified is
extremely vague and should rarely be used.
6)
Burns and Corrosions Classified According to Extent
of Body Surface Involved
Assign codes from category T31, Burns classified according to
extent of body surface involved, or T32, Corrosions classified
according to extent of body surface involved, when the site of
the burn is not specified or when there is a need for additional
data. It is advisable to use category T31 as additional coding
when needed to provide data for evaluating burn mortality,
such as that needed by burn units. It is also advisable to use
category T31 as an additional code for reporting purposes
when there is mention of a third-degree burn involving 20
percent or more of the body surface.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 68 of 113
Categories T31 and T32 are based on the classic “rule of nines”
in estimating body surface involved: head and neck are
assigned nine percent, each arm nine percent, each leg 18
percent, the anterior trunk 18 percent, posterior trunk 18
percent, and genitalia one percent. Providers may change these
percentage assignments where necessary to accommodate
infants and children who have proportionately larger heads
than adults, and patients who have large buttocks, thighs, or
abdomen that involve burns.
7)
Encounters for treatment of sequela of burns
Encounters for the treatment of the late effects of burns or
corrosions (i.e., scars or joint contractures) should be coded
with a burn or corrosion code with the 7th character “S” for
sequela.
8)
Sequelae with a late effect code and current burn
When appropriate, both a code for a current burn or corrosion
with 7th character “A” or “D” and a burn or corrosion code
with 7th character “S” may be assigned on the same record
(when both a current burn and sequelae of an old burn exist).
Burns and corrosions do not heal at the same rate and a current
healing wound may still exist with sequela of a healed burn or
corrosion.
9)
Use of an external cause code with burns and
corrosions
An external cause code should be used with burns and
corrosions to identify the source and intent of the burn, as well
as the place where it occurred.
e.
Adverse Effects, Poisoning, Underdosing and Toxic
Effects
Codes in categories T36-T65 are combination codes that include the
substance that was taken as well as the intent. No additional external
cause code is required for poisonings, toxic effects, adverse effects and
underdosing codes.
1)
Do not code directly from the Table of Drugs
Do not code directly from the Table of Drugs and Chemicals.
Always refer back to the Tabular List.
2)
Use as many codes as necessary to describe
Use as many codes as necessary to describe completely all
drugs, medicinal or biological substances.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 69 of 113
3)
If the same code would describe the causative agent
If the same code would describe the causative agent for more
than one adverse reaction, poisoning, toxic effect or
underdosing, assign the code only once.
4)
If two or more drugs, medicinal or biological
substances
If two or more drugs, medicinal or biological substances are
reported, code each individually unless a combination code is
listed in the Table of Drugs and Chemicals.
5)
The occurrence of drug toxicity is classified in ICD-10CM as follows:
(a)
Adverse Effect
When coding an adverse effect of a drug that has
been correctly prescribed and properly
administered, assign the appropriate code for the
nature of the adverse effect followed by the
appropriate code for the adverse effect of the drug
(T36-T50). The code for the drug should have a 5th
or 6th character “5” (for example T36.0X5-)
Examples of the nature of an adverse effect are
tachycardia, delirium, gastrointestinal hemorrhaging,
vomiting, hypokalemia, hepatitis, renal failure, or
respiratory failure.
(b)
Poisoning
When coding a poisoning or reaction to the improper
use of a medication (e.g., overdose, wrong substance
given or taken in error, wrong route of administration),
first assign the appropriate code from categories T36T50. The poisoning codes have an associated intent as
their 5th or 6th character (accidental, intentional selfharm, assault and undetermined. Use additional code(s)
for all manifestations of poisonings.
If there is also a diagnosis of abuse or dependence of
the substance, the abuse or dependence is assigned as
an additional code.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 70 of 113
Examples of poisoning include:
(i)
Error was made in drug prescription
Errors made in drug prescription or in the
administration of the drug by provider, nurse,
patient, or other person.
(ii)
Overdose of a drug intentionally taken
If an overdose of a drug was intentionally taken
or administered and resulted in drug toxicity, it
would be coded as a poisoning.
(iii)
Nonprescribed drug taken with correctly
prescribed and properly administered drug
If a nonprescribed drug or medicinal agent was
taken in combination with a correctly prescribed
and properly administered drug, any drug
toxicity or other reaction resulting from the
interaction of the two drugs would be classified
as a poisoning.
(iv)
Interaction of drug(s) and alcohol
When a reaction results from the interaction of a
drug(s) and alcohol, this would be classified as
poisoning.
See Section I.C.4. if poisoning is the result of
insulin pump malfunctions.
(c)
Underdosing
Underdosing refers to taking less of a medication than
is prescribed by a provider or a manufacturer’s
instruction. For underdosing, assign the code from
categories T36-T50 (fifth or sixth character “6”).
Codes for underdosing should never be assigned as
principal or first-listed codes. If a patient has a relapse
or exacerbation of the medical condition for which the
drug is prescribed because of the reduction in dose, then
the medical condition itself should be coded.
Noncompliance (Z91.12-, Z91.13-) or complication of
care (Y63.8-Y63.9) codes are to be used with an
underdosing code to indicate intent, if known.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 71 of 113
(d)
Toxic Effects
When a harmful substance is ingested or comes in
contact with a person, this is classified as a toxic effect.
The toxic effect codes are in categories T51-T65.
Toxic effect codes have an associated intent:
accidental, intentional self-harm, assault and
undetermined.
f.
Adult and child abuse, neglect and other maltreatment
Sequence first the appropriate code from categories T74.- (Adult and
child abuse, neglect and other maltreatment, confirmed) or T76.(Adult and child abuse, neglect and other maltreatment, suspected)
for abuse, neglect and other maltreatment, followed by any
accompanying mental health or injury code(s).
If the documentation in the medical record states abuse or neglect it
is coded as confirmed (T74.-). It is coded as suspected if it is
documented as suspected (T76.-).
For cases of confirmed abuse or neglect an external cause code from
the assault section (X92-Y08) should be added to identify the cause
of any physical injuries. A perpetrator code (Y07) should be added
when the perpetrator of the abuse is known. For suspected cases of
abuse or neglect, do not report external cause or perpetrator code.
If a suspected case of abuse, neglect or mistreatment is ruled out
during an encounter code Z04.71, Encounter for examination and
observation following alleged physical adult abuse, ruled out, or
code Z04.72, Encounter for examination and observation
following alleged child physical abuse, ruled out, should be used,
not a code from T76.
If a suspected case of alleged rape or sexual abuse is ruled out
during an encounter code Z04.41, Encounter for examination
and observation following alleged physical adult abuse, ruled
out, or code Z04.42, Encounter for examination and observation
following alleged rape or sexual abuse, ruled out, should be used,
not a code from T76.
See Section I.C.15. Abuse in a pregnant patient.

General guidelines for complications of care
(a)
Documentation of complications of care
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 72 of 113
See Section I.B.16. for information on documentation
of complications of care.
2)
Pain due to medical devices
Pain associated with devices, implants or grafts left in a
surgical site (for example painful hip prosthesis) is assigned to
the appropriate code(s) found in Chapter 19, Injury, poisoning,
and certain other consequences of external causes. Specific
codes for pain due to medical devices are found in the T code
section of the ICD-10-CM. Use additional code(s) from
category G89 to identify acute or chronic pain due to presence
of the device, implant or graft (G89.18 or G89.28).
3)
Transplant complications
(a)
Transplant complications other than kidney
Codes under category T86, Complications of
transplanted organs and tissues, are for use for both
complications and rejection of transplanted organs. A
transplant complication code is only assigned if the
complication affects the function of the transplanted
organ. Two codes are required to fully describe a
transplant complication: the appropriate code from
category T86 and a secondary code that identifies the
complication.
Pre-existing conditions or conditions that develop after
the transplant are not coded as complications unless
they affect the function of the transplanted organs.
See I.C.21. for transplant organ removal status
See I.C.2. for malignant neoplasm associated with
transplanted organ.
(b)
Kidney transplant complications
Patients who have undergone kidney transplant may
still have some form of chronic kidney disease (CKD)
because the kidney transplant may not fully restore
kidney function. Code T86.1- should be assigned for
documented complications of a kidney transplant, such
as transplant failure or rejection or other transplant
complication. Code T86.1- should not be assigned for
post kidney transplant patients who have chronic
kidney (CKD) unless a transplant complication such as
transplant failure or rejection is documented. If the
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 73 of 113
documentation is unclear as to whether the patient has a
complication of the transplant, query the provider.
Conditions that affect the function of the transplanted
kidney, other than CKD, should be assigned a code
from subcategory T86.1, Complications of
transplanted organ, Kidney, and a secondary code that
identifies the complication.
For patients with CKD following a kidney transplant,
but who do not have a complication such as failure or
rejection, see section I.C.14. Chronic kidney disease
and kidney transplant status.
4)
Complication codes that include the external cause
As with certain other T codes, some of the complications of
care codes have the external cause included in the code. The
code includes the nature of the complication as well as the type
of procedure that caused the complication. No external cause
code indicating the type of procedure is necessary for these
codes.
5)
Complications of care codes within the body system
chapters
Intraoperative and postprocedural complication codes are
found within the body system chapters with codes specific to
the organs and structures of that body system. These codes
should be sequenced first, followed by a code(s) for the
specific complication, if applicable.
20.
Chapter 20: External Causes of Morbidity (V01-Y99)
Introduction: These guidelines are provided for the reporting of external
causes of morbidity codes in order that there will be standardization in the
process. These codes are secondary codes for use in any health care setting.
External cause codes are intended to provide data for injury research and
evaluation of injury prevention strategies. These codes capture how the injury
or health condition happened (cause), the intent (unintentional or accidental;
or intentional, such as suicide or assault), the place where the event occurred
the activity of the patient at the time of the event, and the person’s status (e.g.,
civilian, military).
a.
General External Cause Coding Guidelines
1)
Used with any code in the range of A00.0-T88.9,
Z00-Z99
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 74 of 113
An external cause code may be used with any code in the range
of A00.0-T88.9, Z00-Z99, classification that is a health
condition due to an external cause. Though they are most
applicable to injuries, they are also valid for use with such
things as infections or diseases due to an external source, and
other health conditions, such as a heart attack that occurs
during strenuous physical activity.
2)
External cause code used for length of treatment
Assign the external cause code, with the appropriate 7th
character (initial encounter, subsequent encounter or sequela)
for each encounter for which the injury or condition is being
treated.
3)
Use the full range of external cause codes
Use the full range of external cause codes to completely
describe the cause, the intent, the place of occurrence, and if
applicable, the activity of the patient at the time of the event,
and the patient’s status, for all injuries, and other health
conditions due to an external cause.
4)
Assign as many external cause codes as necessary
Assign as many external cause codes as necessary to fully
explain each cause. If only one external code can be recorded,
assign the code most related to the principal diagnosis.
5)
The selection of the appropriate external cause code
The selection of the appropriate external cause code is guided
by the Alphabetic Index of External Causes and by Inclusion
and Exclusion notes in the Tabular List.
6)
External cause code can never be a principal diagnosis
An external cause code can never be a principal (first-listed)
diagnosis.
7)
Combination external cause codes
Certain of the external cause codes are combination codes that
identify sequential events that result in an injury, such as a fall
which results in striking against an object. The injury may be
due to either event or both. The combination external cause
code used should correspond to the sequence of events
regardless of which caused the most serious injury.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 75 of 113
8)
No external cause code needed in certain
circumstances
No external cause code from Chapter 20 is needed if the
external cause and intent are included in a code from another
chapter (e.g. T36.0X1- Poisoning by penicillins, accidental
(unintentional)).
b.
Place of Occurrence Guideline
Codes from category Y92, Place of occurrence of the external cause,
are secondary codes for use after other external cause codes to identify
the location of the patient at the time of injury or other condition.
A place of occurrence code is used only once, at the initial encounter
for treatment. No 7th characters are used for Y92. Only one code from
Y92 should be recorded on a medical record. A place of occurrence
code should be used in conjunction with an activity code, Y93.
Do not use place of occurrence code Y92.9 if the place is not stated or
is not applicable.
c.
Activity Code
Assign a code from category Y93, Activity code, to describe the
activity of the patient at the time the injury or other health condition
occurred.
An activity code is used only once, at the initial encounter for
treatment. Only one code from Y93 should be recorded on a medical
record. An activity code should be used in conjunction with a place of
occurrence code, Y92.
The activity codes are not applicable to poisonings, adverse effects,
misadventures or sequela .
Do not assign Y93.9, Unspecified activity, if the activity is not stated.
A code from category Y93 is appropriate for use with external cause
and intent codes if identifying the activity provides additional
information about the event.
d.
Place of Occurrence, Activity, and Status Codes Used
with other External Cause Code
When applicable, place of occurrence, activity, and external cause
status codes are sequenced after the main external cause code(s).
Regardless of the number of external cause codes assigned, there
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 76 of 113
should be only one place of occurrence code, one activity code, and
one external cause status code assigned to an encounter.
e.
If the Reporting Format Limits the Number of External
Cause Codes
If the reporting format limits the number of external cause codes that
can be used in reporting clinical data, report the code for the
cause/intent most related to the principal diagnosis. If the format
permits capture of additional external cause codes, the cause/intent,
including medical misadventures, of the additional events should be
reported rather than the codes for place, activity, or external status.
f.
Multiple External Cause Coding Guidelines
More than one external cause code is required to fully describe the
external cause of an illness or injury. The assignment of external cause
codes should be sequenced in the following priority:
If two or more events cause separate injuries, an external cause code
should be assigned for each cause. The first-listed external cause code
will be selected in the following order:
External codes for child and adult abuse take priority over all other
external cause codes.
See Section I.C.19., Child and Adult abuse guidelines.
External cause codes for terrorism events take priority over all other
external cause codes except child and adult abuse.
External cause codes for cataclysmic events take priority over all other
external cause codes except child and adult abuse and terrorism.
External cause codes for transport accidents take priority over all other
external cause codes except cataclysmic events, child and adult abuse
and terrorism.
Activity and external cause status codes are assigned following all
causal (intent) external cause codes.
The first-listed external cause code should correspond to the cause of
the most serious diagnosis due to an assault, accident, or self-harm,
following the order of hierarchy listed above.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 77 of 113
g.
Child and Adult Abuse Guideline
Adult and child abuse, neglect and maltreatment are classified as
assault. Any of the assault codes may be used to indicate the external
cause of any injury resulting from the confirmed abuse.
For confirmed cases of abuse, neglect and maltreatment, when the
perpetrator is known, a code from Y07, Perpetrator of maltreatment
and neglect, should accompany any other assault codes.
See Section I.C.19. Adult and child abuse, neglect and other
maltreatment
h.
Unknown or Undetermined Intent Guideline
If the intent (accident, self-harm, assault) of the cause of an injury or
other condition is unknown or unspecified, code the intent as
accidental intent. All transport accident categories assume accidental
intent.
1)
Use of undetermined intent
External cause codes for events of undetermined intent are only
for use if the documentation in the record specifies that the
intent cannot be determined.
i.
Sequelae (Late Effects) of External Cause Guidelines
1)
Sequelae external cause codes
Sequela are reported using the external cause code with the 7th
character “S” for sequela. These codes should be used with
any report of a late effect or sequela resulting from a previous
injury.
2)
Sequela external cause code with a related current
injury
A sequela external cause code should never be used with a
related current nature of injury code.
3)
Use of sequela external cause codes for subsequent
visits
Use a late effect external cause code for subsequent visits when
a late effect of the initial injury is being treated. Do not use a
late effect external cause code for subsequent visits for followup care (e.g., to assess healing, to receive rehabilitative
therapy) of the injury when no late effect of the injury has been
documented.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 78 of 113
j.
Terrorism Guidelines
1)
Cause of injury identified by the Federal Government
(FBI) as terrorism
When the cause of an injury is identified by the Federal
Government (FBI) as terrorism, the first-listed external cause
code should be a code from category Y38, Terrorism. The
definition of terrorism employed by the FBI is found at the
inclusion note at the beginning of category Y38. Use
additional code for place of occurrence (Y92.-). More than
one Y38 code may be assigned if the injury is the result of
more than one mechanism of terrorism.
2)
Cause of an injury is suspected to be the result of
terrorism
When the cause of an injury is suspected to be the result of
terrorism a code from category Y38 should not be assigned.
Suspected cases should be classified as assault.
3)
Code Y38.9, Terrorism, secondary effects
Assign code Y38.9, Terrorism, secondary effects, for
conditions occurring subsequent to the terrorist event. This
code should not be assigned for conditions that are due to the
initial terrorist act.
It is acceptable to assign code Y38.9 with another code from
Y38 if there is an injury due to the initial terrorist event and an
injury that is a subsequent result of the terrorist event.
k.
External cause status
A code from category Y99, External cause status, should be assigned
whenever any other external cause code is assigned for an encounter,
including an Activity code, except for the events noted below. Assign
a code from category Y99, External cause status, to indicate the work
status of the person at the time the event occurred. The status code
indicates whether the event occurred during military activity, whether
a non-military person was at work, whether an individual including a
student or volunteer was involved in a non-work activity at the time of
the causal event.
A code from Y99, External cause status, should be assigned, when
applicable, with other external cause codes, such as transport accidents
and falls. The external cause status codes are not applicable to
poisonings, adverse effects, misadventures or late effects.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 79 of 113
Do not assign a code from category Y99 if no other external cause
codes (cause, activity) are applicable for the encounter.
An external cause status code is used only once, at the initial encounter
for treatment. Only one code from Y99 should be recorded on a
medical record.
Do not assign code Y99.9, Unspecified external cause status, if the
status is not stated.
21.
Chapter 21: Factors influencing health status and contact with
health services (Z00-Z99)
Note: The chapter specific guidelines provide additional information about
the use of Z codes for specified encounters.
a.
Use of Z codes in any healthcare setting
Z codes are for use in any healthcare setting. Z codes may be used as
either a first-listed (principal diagnosis code in the inpatient setting) or
secondary code, depending on the circumstances of the encounter.
Certain Z codes may only be used as first-listed or principal diagnosis.
b.
Z Codes indicate a reason for an encounter
Z codes are not procedure codes. A corresponding procedure code
must accompany a Z code to describe any procedure performed.
c.
Categories of Z Codes
1)
Contact/Exposure
Category Z20 indicates contact with, and suspected exposure
to, communicable diseases. These codes are for patients who
do not show any sign or symptom of a disease but are
suspected to have been exposed to it by close personal contact
with an infected individual or are in an area where a disease is
epidemic.
Category Z77, indicates contact with and suspected exposures
hazardous to health.
Contact/exposure codes may be used as a first-listed code to
explain an encounter for testing, or, more commonly, as a
secondary code to identify a potential risk.
2)
Inoculations and vaccinations
Code Z23 is for encounters for inoculations and vaccinations.
It indicates that a patient is being seen to receive a prophylactic
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 80 of 113
inoculation against a disease. Procedure codes are required to
identify the actual administration of the injection and the
type(s) of immunizations given. Code Z23 may be used as a
secondary code if the inoculation is given as a routine part of
preventive health care, such as a well-baby visit.
3)
Status
Status codes indicate that a patient is either a carrier of a
disease or has the sequelae or residual of a past disease or
condition. This includes such things as the presence of
prosthetic or mechanical devices resulting from past treatment.
A status code is informative, because the status may affect the
course of treatment and its outcome. A status code is distinct
from a history code. The history code indicates that the patient
no longer has the condition.
A status code should not be used with a diagnosis code from
one of the body system chapters, if the diagnosis code includes
the information provided by the status code. For example,
code Z94.1, Heart transplant status, should not be used with a
code from subcategory T86.2, Complications of heart
transplant. The status code does not provide additional
information. The complication code indicates that the patient
is a heart transplant patient.
For encounters for weaning from a mechanical ventilator,
assign a code from subcategory J96.1, Chronic respiratory
failure, followed by code Z99.11, Dependence on respirator
[ventilator] status.
The status Z codes/categories are:
Z14
Genetic carrier
Genetic carrier status indicates that a person carries
a gene, associated with a particular disease, which
may be passed to offspring who may develop that
disease. The person does not have the disease and
is not at risk of developing the disease.
Z15
Genetic susceptibility to disease
Genetic susceptibility indicates that a person has a
gene that increases the risk of that person
developing the disease.
Codes from category Z15 should not be used as
principal or first-listed codes. If the patient has the
condition to which he/she is susceptible, and that
condition is the reason for the encounter, the code
for the current condition should be sequenced first.

Z74.01
Z76.82
Z78
If the patient is being seen for follow-up after
completed treatment for this condition, and the
condition no longer exists, a follow-up code should
be sequenced first, followed by the appropriate
personal history and genetic susceptibility codes. If
the purpose of the encounter is genetic counseling
associated with procreative management, code
Z31.5, Encounter for genetic counseling, should be
assigned as the first-listed code, followed by a code
from category Z15. Additional codes should be
assigned for any applicable family or personal
history.
Resistance to antimicrobial drugs
This code indicates that a patient has a condition
that is resistant to antimicrobial drug treatment.
Sequence the infection code first.
Estrogen receptor status
Retained foreign body fragments
Asymptomatic HIV infection status
This code indicates that a patient has tested positive
for HIV but has manifested no signs or symptoms
of the disease.
Carrier of infectious disease
Carrier status indicates that a person harbors the
specific organisms of a disease without manifest
symptoms and is capable of transmitting the
infection.
Underimmunization status
Pregnant state, incidental
This code is a secondary code only for use when the
pregnancy is in no way complicating the reason for
visit. Otherwise, a code from the obstetric chapter
is required.
Do not resuscitate
This code may be used when it is documented by
the provider that a patient is on do not resuscitate
status at any time during the stay.
Blood type
Body mass index (BMI)
Bed confinement status
Awaiting organ transplant status
Other specified health status
Code Z78.1, Physical restraint status, may be used
when it is documented by the provider that a patient
has been put in restraints during the current
encounter. Please note that this code should not be
reported when it is documented by the provider that
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 82 of 113
Z79
Z88
Z89
Z90
Z91.0Z92.82
a patient is temporarily restrained during a
procedure.
Long-term (current) drug therapy
Codes from this category indicate a patient’s
continuous use of a prescribed drug (including such
things as aspirin therapy) for the long-term
treatment of a condition or for prophylactic use. It
is not for use for patients who have addictions to
drugs. This subcategory is not for use of
medications for detoxification or maintenance
programs to prevent withdrawal symptoms in
patients with drug dependence (e.g., methadone
maintenance for opiate dependence). Assign the
appropriate code for the drug dependence instead.
Assign a code from Z79 if the patient is receiving a
medication for an extended period as a prophylactic
measure (such as for the prevention of deep vein
thrombosis) or as treatment of a chronic condition
(such as arthritis) or a disease requiring a lengthy
course of treatment (such as cancer). Do not assign
a code from category Z79 for medication being
administered for a brief period of time to treat an
acute illness or injury (such as a course of
antibiotics to treat acute bronchitis).
Allergy status to drugs, medicaments and biological
substances
Except: Z88.9, Allergy status to unspecified drugs,
medicaments and biological substances status
Acquired absence of limb
Acquired absence of organs, not elsewhere
classified
Allergy status, other than to drugs and biological
substances
Status post administration of tPA (rtPA) in a
different facility within the last 24 hours prior to
admission to a current facility
Assign code Z92.82, Status post administration of
tPA (rtPA) in a different facility within the last 24
hours prior to admission to current facility, as a
secondary diagnosis when a patient is received by
transfer into a facility and documentation indicates
they were administered tissue plasminogen activator
(tPA) within the last 24 hours prior to admission to
the current facility.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 83 of 113
This guideline applies even if the patient is still
receiving the tPA at the time they are received into
the current facility.
The appropriate code for the condition for which the
tPA was administered (such as cerebrovascular
disease or myocardial infarction) should be assigned
first.
Z93
Z94
Z95
Z96
Z97
Z98
Code Z92.82 is only applicable to the receiving
facility record and not to the transferring facility
record.
Artificial opening status
Transplanted organ and tissue status
Presence of cardiac and vascular implants and grafts
Presence of other functional implants
Presence of other devices
Other postprocedural states
Assign code Z98.85, Transplanted organ removal
status, to indicate that a transplanted organ has been
previously removed. This code should not be
assigned for the encounter in which the transplanted
organ is removed. The complication necessitating
removal of the transplant organ should be assigned
for that encounter.
See section I.C19. for information on the coding of
organ transplant complications.
Z99
4)
Dependence on enabling machines and devices, not
elsewhere classified
Note: Categories Z89-Z90 and Z93-Z99 are for use
only if there are no complications or malfunctions
of the organ or tissue replaced, the amputation site
or the equipment on which the patient is dependent.
History (of)
There are two types of history Z codes, personal and family.
Personal history codes explain a patient’s past medical
condition that no longer exists and is not receiving any
treatment, but that has the potential for recurrence, and
therefore may require continued monitoring.
Family history codes are for use when a patient has a family
member(s) who has had a particular disease that causes the
patient to be at higher risk of also contracting the disease.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 84 of 113
Personal history codes may be used in conjunction with followup codes and family history codes may be used in conjunction
with screening codes to explain the need for a test or
procedure. History codes are also acceptable on any medical
record regardless of the reason for visit. A history of an illness,
even if no longer present, is important information that may
alter the type of treatment ordered.
The history Z code categories are:
Z80
Family history of primary malignant neoplasm
Z81
Family history of mental and behavioral disorders
Z82
Family history of certain disabilities and chronic
diseases (leading to disablement)
Z83
Family history of other specific disorders
Z84
Family history of other conditions
Z85
Personal history of malignant neoplasm
Z86
Personal history of certain other diseases
Z87
Personal history of other diseases and conditions
Z91.4Personal history of psychological trauma, not
elsewhere classified
Z91.5
Personal history of self-harm
Z91.8Other specified personal risk factors, not elsewhere
classified
Exception:
Z91.83, Wandering in diseases classified
elsewhere
Z92
Personal history of medical treatment
Except: Z92.0, Personal history of contraception
Except: Z92.82, Status post administration of tPA
(rtPA) in a different facility within the last 24 hours
prior to admission to a current facility
5)
Screening
Screening is the testing for disease or disease precursors in
seemingly well individuals so that early detection and
treatment can be provided for those who test positive for the
disease (e.g., screening mammogram).
The testing of a person to rule out or confirm a suspected
diagnosis because the patient has some sign or symptom is a
diagnostic examination, not a screening. In these cases, the
sign or symptom is used to explain the reason for the test.
A screening code may be a first-listed code if the reason for the
visit is specifically the screening exam. It may also be used as
an additional code if the screening is done during an office visit
for other health problems. A screening code is not necessary if
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 85 of 113
the screening is inherent to a routine examination, such as a
pap smear done during a routine pelvic examination.
Should a condition be discovered during the screening then the
code for the condition may be assigned as an additional
diagnosis.
The Z code indicates that a screening exam is planned. A
procedure code is required to confirm that the screening was
performed.
The screening Z codes/categories:
Z11
Encounter for screening for infectious and parasitic
diseases
Z12
Encounter for screening for malignant neoplasms
Z13
Encounter for screening for other diseases and
disorders
Except: Z13.9, Encounter for screening, unspecified
Z36
Encounter for antenatal screening for mother
6)
Observation
There are two observation Z code categories. They are for use
in very limited circumstances when a person is being observed
for a suspected condition that is ruled out. The observation
codes are not for use if an injury or illness or any signs or
symptoms related to the suspected condition are present. In
such cases the diagnosis/symptom code is used with the
corresponding external cause code.
The observation codes are to be used as principal diagnosis
only. Additional codes may be used in addition to the
observation code but only if they are unrelated to the suspected
condition being observed.
Codes from subcategory Z03.7, Encounter for suspected
maternal and fetal conditions ruled out, may either be used as a
first-listed or as an additional code assignment depending on
the case. They are for use in very limited circumstances on a
maternal record when an encounter is for a suspected maternal
or fetal condition that is ruled out during that encounter (for
example, a maternal or fetal condition may be suspected due to
an abnormal test result). These codes should not be used when
the condition is confirmed. In those cases, the confirmed
condition should be coded. In addition, these codes are not for
use if an illness or any signs or symptoms related to the
suspected condition or problem are present. In such cases the
diagnosis/symptom code is used.
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 86 of 113
Additional codes may be used in addition to the code from
subcategory Z03.7, but only if they are unrelated to the
suspected condition being evaluated.
Codes from subcategory Z03.7 may not be used for encounters
for antenatal screening of mother. See Section I.C.21.
Screening.
For encounters for suspected fetal condition that are
inconclusive following testing and evaluation, assign the
appropriate code from category O35, O36, O40 or O41.
The observation Z code categories:
Z03
Encounter for medical observation for suspected
diseases and conditions ruled out
Z04
Encounter for examination and observation for
other reasons
Except: Z04.9, Encounter for examination and
observation for unspecified reason
7)
Aftercare
Aftercare visit codes cover situations when the initial treatment
of a disease has been performed and the patient requires
continued care during the healing or recovery phase, or for the
long-term consequences of the disease. The aftercare Z code
should not be used if treatment is directed at a current, acute
disease. The diagnosis code is to be used in these cases.
Exceptions to this rule are codes Z51.0, Encounter for
antineoplastic radiation therapy, and codes from subcategory
Z51.1, Encounter for antineoplastic chemotherapy and
immunotherapy. These codes are to be first-listed, followed by
the diagnosis code when a patient’s encounter is solely to
receive radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or immunotherapy for
the treatment of a neoplasm. If the reason for the encounter is
more than one type of antineoplastic therapy, code Z51.0 and a
code from subcategory Z51.1 may be assigned together, in
which case one of these codes would be reported as a
secondary diagnosis.
The aftercare Z codes should also not be used for aftercare for
injuries. For aftercare of an injury, assign the acute injury code
with the appropriate 7th character (for subsequent encounter).
The aftercare codes are generally first-listed to explain the
specific reason for the encounter. An aftercare code may be

provided in addition to the reason for admission and no

diagnosis code is applicable. An example of this would be the
closure of a colostomy during an encounter for treatment of
another condition.
Aftercare codes should be used in conjunction with other
aftercare codes or diagnosis codes to provide better detail on
the specifics of an aftercare encounter visit, unless otherwise
directed by the classification. Should a patient receive multiple
types of antineoplastic therapy during the same encounter, code
Z51.0, Encounter for antineoplastic radiation therapy, and
codes from subcategory Z51.1, Encounter for antineoplastic
chemotherapy and immunotherapy, may be used together on a
record. The sequencing of multiple aftercare codes depends on
the circumstances of the encounter.
Certain aftercare Z code categories need a secondary diagnosis
code to describe the resolving condition or sequelae. For
others, the condition is included in the code title.
Additional Z code aftercare category terms include fitting and
adjustment, and attention to artificial openings.
Status Z codes may be used with aftercare Z codes to indicate
the nature of the aftercare. For example code Z95.1, Presence
of aortocoronary bypass graft, may be used with code Z48.812,
Encounter for surgical aftercare following surgery on the
circulatory system, to indicate the surgery for which the
aftercare is being performed. A status code should not be used
when the aftercare code indicates the type of status, such as
using Z43.0, Encounter for attention to tracheostomy, with
Z93.0, Tracheostomy status.
The aftercare Z category/codes:
Z42
Encounter for plastic and reconstructive surgery
following medical procedure or healed injury
Z43
Encounter for attention to artificial openings
Z44
Encounter for fitting and adjustment of external
prosthetic device
Z45
Encounter for adjustment and management of
implanted device
Z46
Encounter for fitting and adjustment of other
devices
Z47
Orthopedic aftercare
Z48
Encounter for other postprocedural aftercare
Z49
Encounter for care involving renal dialysis
Z51
Encounter for other aftercare

Follow-up
The follow-up codes are used to explain continuing
surveillance following completed treatment of a disease,
condition, or injury. They imply that the condition has been
fully treated and no longer exists. They should not be confused
with aftercare codes, or injury codes with a 7th character for
subsequent encounter, that explain ongoing care of a healing
condition or its sequelae. Follow-up codes may be used in
conjunction with history codes to provide the full picture of the
healed condition and its treatment. The follow-up code is
sequenced first, followed by the history code.
A follow-up code may be used to explain multiple visits.
Should a condition be found to have recurred on the follow-up
visit, then the diagnosis code for the condition should be
assigned in place of the follow-up code.
The follow-up Z code categories:
Z08
Encounter for follow-up examination after
completed treatment for malignant neoplasm
Z09
Encounter for follow-up examination after
completed treatment for conditions other than
malignant neoplasm
Z39
Encounter for maternal postpartum care and
examination
9)
Donor
Codes in category Z52, Donors of organs and tissues, are used
for living individuals who are donating blood or other body
tissue. These codes are only for individuals donating for
others, not for self-donations. They are not used to identify
cadaveric donations.
10)
Counseling
Counseling Z codes are used when a patient or family member
receives assistance in the aftermath of an illness or injury, or
when support is required in coping with family or social
problems. They are not used in conjunction with a diagnosis
code when the counseling component of care is considered
integral to standard treatment.
The counseling Z codes/categories:
Z30.0Encounter for general counseling and advice on
contraception
Z31.5
Encounter for genetic counseling

classified
Expectant mother prebirth pediatrician visit
Encounters for Obstetrical and Reproductive Services
See Section I.C.15. Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the
Puerperium, for further instruction on the use of these codes.
Z codes for pregnancy are for use in those circumstances when
none of the problems or complications included in the codes
from the Obstetrics chapter exist (a routine prenatal visit or
postpartum care). Codes in category Z34, Encounter for
supervision of normal pregnancy, are always first-listed and are
not to be used with any other code from the OB chapter.
Codes in category Z3A, Weeks of gestation, may be
assigned to provide additional information about the
pregnancy.
The outcome of delivery, category Z37, should be included on
all maternal delivery records. It is always a secondary code.
Codes in category Z37 should not be used on the newborn
record.
Z codes for family planning (contraceptive) or procreative
management and counseling should be included on an obstetric
record either during the pregnancy or the postpartum stage, if
applicable.
Z codes/categories for obstetrical and reproductive services:

type of delivery
13)
Routine and administrative examinations
The Z codes allow for the description of encounters for routine
examinations, such as, a general check-up, or, examinations for
administrative purposes, such as, a pre-employment physical.
The codes are not to be used if the examination is for diagnosis
of a suspected condition or for treatment purposes. In such
cases the diagnosis code is used. During a routine exam,
should a diagnosis or condition be discovered, it should be
coded as an additional code. Pre-existing and chronic
conditions and history codes may also be included as additional
codes as long as the examination is for administrative purposes
and not focused on any particular condition.
Some of the codes for routine health examinations distinguish
between “with” and “without” abnormal findings. Code
assignment depends on the information that is known at the
time the encounter is being coded. For example, if no abnormal
findings were found during the examination, but the encounter
is being coded before test results are back, it is acceptable to
assign the code for “without abnormal findings.” When
assigning a code for “with abnormal findings,” additional
code(s) should be assigned to identify the specific abnormal
finding(s).
Pre-operative examination and pre-procedural laboratory
examination Z codes are for use only in those situations when a
patient is being cleared for a procedure or surgery and no
treatment is given.

examinations:

Encounter for other special examination without
complaint, suspected or reported diagnosis
Encounter for administrative examination
Except: Z02.9, Encounter for administrative
examinations, unspecified
Encounter for pregnancy test
Miscellaneous Z codes
The miscellaneous Z codes capture a number of other health
care encounters that do not fall into one of the other categories.
Certain of these codes identify the reason for the encounter;
others are for use as additional codes that provide useful
information on circumstances that may affect a patient’s care
and treatment.
Prophylactic Organ Removal
For encounters specifically for prophylactic removal of an
organ (such as prophylactic removal of breasts due to a genetic
susceptibility to cancer or a family history of cancer), the
principal or first-listed code should be a code from category
Z40, Encounter for prophylactic surgery, followed by the
appropriate codes to identify the associated risk factor (such as
genetic susceptibility or family history).
If the patient has a malignancy of one site and is having
prophylactic removal at another site to prevent either a new
primary malignancy or metastatic disease, a code for the
malignancy should also be assigned in addition to a code from
subcategory Z40.0, Encounter for prophylactic surgery for risk
factors related to malignant neoplasms. A Z40.0 code should
not be assigned if the patient is having organ removal for
treatment of a malignancy, such as the removal of the testes for
the treatment of prostate cancer.
Miscellaneous Z codes/categories:
Z28
Immunization not carried out
Except: Z28.3, Underimmunization status
Z40
Encounter for prophylactic surgery
Z41

Other boarder to healthcare facility
Malingerer [conscious simulation]
Patient’s noncompliance with medical treatment
and regimen
Wandering in diseases classified elsewhere
Other specified personal risk factors, not elsewhere
classified
Nonspecific Z codes
Certain Z codes are so non-specific, or potentially redundant
with other codes in the classification, that there can be little
justification for their use in the inpatient setting. Their use in
the outpatient setting should be limited to those instances when
there is no further documentation to permit more precise
coding. Otherwise, any sign or symptom or any other reason
for visit that is captured in another code should be used.

workup and/or therapy provided, and the Alphabetic Index, Tabular List, or another
coding guidelines does not provide sequencing direction, any one of the diagnoses
may be sequenced first.
D. Two or more comparative or contrasting conditions.
In those rare instances when two or more contrasting or comparative diagnoses are
documented as “either/or” (or similar terminology), they are coded as if the diagnoses
were confirmed and the diagnoses are sequenced according to the circumstances of
the admission. If no further determination can be made as to which diagnosis should
be principal, either diagnosis may be sequenced first.
E. A symptom(s) followed by contrasting/comparative diagnoses
When a symptom(s) is followed by contrasting/comparative diagnoses, the symptom
code is sequenced first. All the contrasting/comparative diagnoses should be coded
as additional diagnoses.
F. Original treatment plan not carried out
Sequence as the principal diagnosis the condition, which after study occasioned the
admission to the hospital, even though treatment may not have been carried out due to
unforeseen circumstances.
G. Complications of surgery and other medical care
When the admission is for treatment of a complication resulting from surgery or other
medical care, the complication code is sequenced as the principal diagnosis. If the
complication is classified to the T80-T88 series and the code lacks the necessary
specificity in describing the complication, an additional code for the specific
complication should be assigned.
H. Uncertain Diagnosis
If the diagnosis documented at the time of discharge is qualified as “probable”,
“suspected”, “likely”, “questionable”, “possible”, or “still to be ruled out”, or other
similar terms indicating uncertainty, code the condition as if it existed or was
established. The bases for these guidelines are the diagnostic workup, arrangements
for further workup or observation, and initial therapeutic approach that correspond
most closely with the established diagnosis.
Note: This guideline is applicable only to inpatient admissions to short-term, acute,
long-term care and psychiatric hospitals.
I. Admission from Observation Unit
1.
Admission Following Medical Observation
When a patient is admitted to an observation unit for a medical condition,
which either worsens or does not improve, and is subsequently admitted as an
ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting
2012
Page 96 of 113
inpatient of the same hospital for this same medical condition, the principal
diagnosis would be the medical condition which led to the hospital admission.
2.
Admission Following Post-Operative Observation
When a patient is admitted to an observation unit to monitor a condition (or
complication) that develops following outpatient surgery, and then is
subsequently admitted as an inpatient of the same hospital, hospitals should
apply the Uniform Hospital Discharge Data Set (UHDDS) definition of
principal diagnosis as "that condition established after study to be chiefly
responsible for occasioning the admission of the patient to the hospital for
care."
J. Admission from Outpatient Surgery
When a patient receives surgery in the hospital's outpatient surgery department and is
subsequently admitted for continuing inpatient care at the same hospital, the
following guidelines should be followed in selecting the principal diagnosis for the
inpatient admission:
•
•
•
If the reason for the inpatient admission is a complication, assign the
complication as the principal diagnosis.
If no complication, or other condition, is documented as the reason for the
inpatient admission, assign the reason for the outpatient surgery as the
principal diagnosis.
If the reason for the inpatient admission is another condition unrelated to
the surgery, assign the unrelated condition as the principal diagnosis.

Accidents (V00-X58)
Transport accidents (V00-V99)
Note:
This section is structured in 12 groups. Those relating to land transport accidents (V01- V89) reflect the
victim's mode of transport and are subdivided to identify the victim's 'counterpart' or the type of event. The
vehicle of which the injured person is an occupant is identified in the first two characters since it is seen
as the most important factor to identify for prevention purposes. A transport accident is one in which the
vehicle involved must be moving or running or in use for transport purposes at the time of the accident.
Use additional code to identify: Airbag injury (W22.1)
Type of street or road (Y92.4-)

Definitions of transport vehicles:
(a) A transport accident is any accident involving a device designed primarily for, or used at the
time primarily for, conveying persons or good from one place to another.
(b) A public highway [traffic way] or street is the entire width between property lines (or other
boundary lines) of land open to the public as a matter of right or custom for purposes of
moving persons or property from one place to another. A roadway is that part of the public
highway designed, improved and customarily used for vehicular traffic.
(c) A traffic accident is any vehicle accident occurring on the public highway [i.e. originating on,
terminating on, or involving a vehicle partially on the highway]. A vehicle accident is assumed
to have occurred on the public highway unless another place is specified, except in the case
of accidents involving only off-road motor vehicles, which are classified as nontraffic accidents
unless the contrary is stated.
(d) A nontraffic accident is any vehicle accident that occurs entirely in any place other than a
public highway.
(e) A pedestrian is any person involved in an accident who was not at the time of the accident
riding in or on a motor vehicle, railway train, streetcar or animal-drawn or other vehicle, or on a
pedal cycle or animal. This includes, a person changing a tire or working on a parked car. It
also includes the use of a pedestrian conveyance such as a baby carriage, ice-skates, roller
skates, a skateboard, nonmotorized or motorized wheelchair, motorized mobility scooter, or
nonmotorized scooter.
(f) A driver is an occupant of a transport vehicle who is operating or intending to operate it.
(g) A passenger is any occupant of a transport vehicle other than the driver, except a person
traveling on the outside of the vehicle.
(h) A person on the outside of a vehicle is any person being transported by a vehicle but not
occupying the space normally reserved for the driver or passengers, or the space intended for
29
the transport of property. This includes the body, bumper, fender, roof, running board or step
of a vehicle.
(i) A pedal cycle is any land transport vehicle operated solely by nonmotorized pedals including a
bicycle or tricycle.
(j) A pedal cyclist is any person riding a pedal cycle or in a sidecar or trailer attached to a pedal cycle.
(k) A motorcycle is a two-wheeled motor vehicle with one or two riding saddles and sometimes with a third
wheel for the support of a sidecar. The sidecar is considered part of the motorcycle.
(l) A motorcycle rider is any person riding a motorcycle or in a sidecar or trailer attached to the
motorcycle.
(m) A three-wheeled motor vehicle is a motorized tricycle designed primarily for on-road use. This
includes a motor-driven tricycle, a motorized rickshaw, or a three-wheeled motor car.
(n) A car [automobile] is a four-wheeled motor vehicle designed primarily for carrying up to 7
persons. A trailer being towed by the car is considered part of the car.
(o) A pick-up truck or van is a four or six-wheeled motor vehicle designed for carrying passengers
as well as property or cargo weighing less than the local limit for classification as a heavy
goods vehicle, and not requiring a special driver's license. This includes a minivan and a
sport-utility vehicle (SUV).
(p) A heavy transport vehicle is a motor vehicle designed primarily for carrying property, meeting
local criteria for classification as a heavy goods vehicle in terms of weight and requiring a
special driver's license.
(q) A bus (coach) is a motor vehicle designed or adapted primarily for carrying more than 10
passengers, and requiring a special driver's license.
(r) A railway train or railway vehicle is any device, with or without freight or passenger cars couple
to it, designed for traffic on a railway track. This includes subterranean (subways) or elevated
trains.
(s) A streetcar is a device designed and used primarily for transporting passengers within a
municipality, running on rails, usually subject to normal traffic control signals, and operated
principally on a right-of-way that forms part of the roadway. This includes a tram or trolley that
runs on rails. A trailer being towed by a streetcar is considered part of the streetcar.
(t) A special vehicle mainly used on industrial premises is a motor vehicle designed primarily for
use within the buildings and premises of industrial or commercial establishments. This includes
battery-powered trucks, forklifts, coal-cars in a coal mine, logging cars and trucks used in
mines or quarries.
(u) A special vehicle mainly used in agriculture is a motor vehicle designed specifically for use in
farming and agriculture (horticulture), to work the land, tend and harvest crops and transport
materials on the farm. This includes harvesters, farm machinery and tractor and trailers.
(v) A special construction vehicle is a motor vehicle designed specifically for use on construction
and demolition sites. This includes bulldozers, diggers, earth levellers, dump trucks. backhoes,
