- Code Navigator:
T82.399 is a non-specific and non-billable diagnosis code code, consider using a code with a higher level of specificity for a diagnosis of other mechanical complication of unspecified vascular grafts. The code is not specific and is NOT valid for the year 2024 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions. Category or Header define the heading of a category of codes that may be further subdivided by the use of 4th, 5th, 6th or 7th characters.

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.
Specific Coding Applicable to Other mechanical complication of unspecified vascular grafts
Non-specific codes like T82.399 require more digits to indicate the appropriate level of specificity. Consider using any of the following ICD-10-CM codes with a higher level of specificity when coding for other mechanical complication of unspecified vascular grafts:
Approximate Synonyms
The following clinical terms are approximate synonyms or lay terms that might be used to identify the correct diagnosis code:
- Bypass graft mechanical complications
- Complication of totally implantable venous access device
- Mechanical complication of vascular device
- Mechanical complication of venous catheter
- Obstruction of totally implantable venous access device
- Persistent flow of blood into aneurysm sac following endovascular insertion of stent graft
- Vascular graft occlusion
Coding Guidelines
The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from block Complications of cardiac and vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (T82). Use the following options for the aplicable episode of care:
