T82.398 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 other 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.

Specific Coding Applicable to Other mechanical complication of other vascular grafts

Non-specific codes like T82.398 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 other vascular grafts:

  • Use T82.398A for initial encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T82.398D for subsequent encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T82.398S for sequela - BILLABLE CODE

Approximate Synonyms

The following clinical terms are approximate synonyms or lay terms that might be used to identify the correct diagnosis code:

  • Complete obstruction of systemic to pulmonary artery shunt
  • Obstruction of surgically constructed pulmonary venous pathway as complication of procedure
  • Partial obstruction of systemic to pulmonary artery shunt

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:

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