S25.192A is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other specified injury of left innominate or subclavian artery, initial encounter. The 7th character A marks it as an initial encounter code, used while the patient is receiving active treatment. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2027 (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) and groups to MS-DRG 791, 793, 913 through 914, 963 through 965. As a secondary diagnosis, it counts as a major complication or comorbidity (MCC) and places an inpatient stay in the highest severity level of its MS-DRG family. It does not count, however, when the principal diagnosis is one of 27 closely related codes. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Injury to blood vessels, initial encounter.
