Code Classification

  • Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes
    (S00–T88)
    • Injury of unspecified body region
      (T14)
      • Injury of unspecified body region
        (T14)

T14.8XXD is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of other injury of unspecified body region, subsequent encounter. The code is valid during the current fiscal year for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions from October 01, 2023 through September 30, 2024. The code is exempt from present on admission (POA) reporting for inpatient admissions to general acute care hospitals.

T14.8XXD is a subsequent encounter code, includes a 7th character and should be used after the patient has completed active treatment for a condition like other injury of unspecified body region. According to ICD-10-CM Guidelines a "subsequent encounter" occurs when the patient is receiving routine care for the condition during the healing or recovery phase of treatment. Subsequent diagnosis codes are appropriate during the recovery phase, no matter how many times the patient has seen the provider for this condition. If the provider needs to adjust the patient's care plan due to a setback or other complication, the encounter becomes active again.

Unspecified diagnosis codes like T14.8XXD are acceptable when clinical information is unknown or not available about a particular condition. Although a more specific code is preferable, unspecified codes should be used when such codes most accurately reflect what is known about a patient's condition. Specific diagnosis codes should not be used if not supported by the patient's medical record.

Clinical Classification

Clinical Information

  • Central Cord Syndrome

    a syndrome associated with traumatic injury to the cervical or upper thoracic regions of the spinal cord characterized by weakness in the arms with relative sparing of the legs and variable sensory loss. this condition is associated with ischemia, hemorrhage, or necrosis involving the central portions of the spinal cord. corticospinal fibers destined for the legs are spared due to their more external location in the spinal cord. this clinical pattern may emerge during recovery from spinal shock. deficits may be transient or permanent.
  • Seroma

    tumor-like sterile accumulation of serum in a tissue, organ, or cavity. it results from a tissue insult and is the product of tissue inflammation. it most commonly occurs following mastectomy.
  • Mastectomy

    surgical procedure to remove one or both breasts.
  • Bruise|Bruise/Contusion|Bruising|Bruising

    injury of the soft tissues or bone without breaking the skin that is characterized by blood leakage into the surrounding area.
  • Contusion

    a bruise due to trauma.
  • Liver Contusion

    bruising of the liver.
  • Myocardial Contusion

    a bruise to the heart.
  • Ocular Contusion

    a closed globe injury without violation of the eyewall (cornea and/or sclera), resulting in injury to one or more intraocular structures. (adapted from the birmingham eye trauma terminology system (betts))
  • Orbital Contusion

    bruising of the skin and soft tissue surrounding the eye.
  • Cardiovascular Injury

    trauma to the heart and/or blood vessels.
  • Bone Injury

    trauma to bone.
  • Closed Fracture

    a traumatic break to the bone in which the continuity of the bone has not broken through the skin.
  • Closed Fracture of Carpal Bone

    a traumatic break in one or more of the carpal bones that does not involve a break in the adjacent skin.
  • Closed Fracture of Malar and Maxillary Bone

    a traumatic break in the malar and maxillary bones that does not involve a break in the adjacent skin.
  • Closed Fracture of Mandible

    a traumatic break in the mandible that does not involve a break in the adjacent skin.
  • Closed Fracture of Mandible, Multiple Sites

    a traumatic break in two or more places in the mandible that does not involve a break in the adjacent skin.
  • Closed Fracture of Metacarpal Bone

    a traumatic break in one or more of the metacarpal bones that does not involve a break in the adjacent skin.

  • Closed Fracture of Pelvis

    a traumatic break in one or more of the bones comprising the bony structure of the pelvis that does not involve a break in the adjacent skin.
  • Closed Fracture of Rib

    a traumatic break in one of the bones in the rib cage that does not involve a break in the adjacent skin.
  • Closed Fracture of Ribs, Multiple Sites

    a traumatic break in two or more places in one rib, or a traumatic break in more than one rib, that does not involve a break in the adjacent skin.

Coding Guidelines

The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from block Injury of unspecified body region (T14). Use the following options for the aplicable episode of care:

  • A - initial encounter
  • D - subsequent encounter
  • S - sequela

Present on Admission (POA)

T14.8XXD is exempt from POA reporting - The Present on Admission (POA) indicator is used for diagnosis codes included in claims involving inpatient admissions to general acute care hospitals. POA indicators must be reported to CMS on each claim to facilitate the grouping of diagnoses codes into the proper Diagnostic Related Groups (DRG). CMS publishes a listing of specific diagnosis codes that are exempt from the POA reporting requirement. Review other POA exempt codes here.

Footnotes

[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
