Code Classification

  • External causes of morbidity and mortality
    (V01–Y99)
    • Transport accidents
      (V00-V99)
      • Other injury due to accident on board watercraft, without accident to watercraft
        (V93)

V93.0 is a non-specific and non-billable diagnosis code code, consider using a code with a higher level of specificity for a diagnosis of burn due to localized fire on board watercraft. 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.

Specific Coding Applicable to Burn due to localized fire on board watercraft

Non-specific codes like V93.0 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 burn due to localized fire on board watercraft:

  • V93.00 for Burn due to localized fire on board merchant vessel - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use V93.00XA for initial encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use V93.00XD for subsequent encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use V93.00XS for sequela - BILLABLE CODE

  • V93.01 for Burn due to localized fire on board passenger vessel - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use V93.01XA for initial encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use V93.01XD for subsequent encounter - BILLABLE CODE

Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries

The following annotation back-references are applicable to this diagnosis code. The Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries is a list of ICD-10-CM codes, organized "head to toe" into chapters and sections with coding notes and guidance for inclusions, exclusions, descriptions and more.


Type 1 Excludes

Type 1 Excludes
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means "NOT CODED HERE!" An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.

Patient Education


Burns

A burn is damage to your body's tissues caused by heat, chemicals, electricity, sunlight, or radiation. Scalds from hot liquids and steam, building fires and flammable liquids and gases are the most common causes of burns. Another kind is an inhalation injury, caused by breathing smoke.

There are three types of burns:

  • First-degree burns damage only the outer layer of skin
  • Second-degree burns damage the outer layer and the layer underneath
  • Third-degree burns damage or destroy the deepest layer of skin and tissues underneath

Burns can cause swelling, blistering, scarring and, in serious cases, shock, and even death. They also can lead to infections because they damage your skin's protective barrier. Treatment for burns depends on the cause of the burn, how deep it is, and how much of the body it covers. Antibiotic creams can prevent or treat infections. For more serious burns, treatment may be needed to clean the wound, replace the skin, and make sure the patient has enough fluids and nutrition.
