S92 is a non-billable ICD-10-CM category code for fracture of foot and toe, except ankle, so it cannot be submitted on claims. Use a more specific code from this category instead, such as S92.001A, S92.001B, S92.001D, and S92.001G.

Coding GuidelinesGuidance

The principles of multiple coding of injuries should be followed in coding fractures. Fractures of specified sites are coded individually by site, to the level of detail furnished by medical record content.

A fracture not indicated as open or closed should be coded to closed. A fracture not indicated whether displaced or not displaced should be coded to displaced.

Initial vs. Subsequent Encounter for Fractures

Traumatic fractures are coded using the appropriate 7th character for initial encounter (A, B, C) while the patient is receiving active treatment for the fracture. The appropriate 7th character for initial encounter should also be assigned for a patient who delayed seeking treatment for the fracture or nonunion.

Fractures are coded using the appropriate 7th character for subsequent care for encounters after the patient has completed active treatment of the fracture and is receiving routine care for the fracture during the healing or recovery phase.

Care for complications of surgical treatment for fracture repairs during the healing or recovery phase should be coded with the appropriate complication codes.

Care of complications of fractures, such as malunion and nonunion, should be reported with the appropriate 7th character for subsequent care with nonunion (K, M, N) or subsequent care with malunion (P, Q, R).

The open fracture designations in the assignment of the 7th character for fractures of the forearm, femur and lower leg, including ankle are based on the Gustilo open fracture classification. When the Gustilo classification type is not specified for an open fracture, the 7th character for open fracture type I or II should be assigned (B, E, H, M, Q).

Tabular List NotesGuidance

Coding notes and annotation back-references applicable to this code.

Type 2 Excludes

  • fracture of ankle S82
  • fracture of malleolus S82
  • traumatic amputation of ankle and foot S98

7th Character Note

  • The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from category S92

7th Character

  • A - initial encounter for closed fracture
  • B - initial encounter for open fracture
  • D - subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing
  • G - subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing
  • K - subsequent encounter for fracture with nonunion
  • P - subsequent encounter for fracture with malunion
  • S - sequela

  • A fracture not indicated as displaced or nondisplaced should be coded to displaced
  • A fracture not indicated as open or closed should be coded to closed

Questions About S92Overview

Is S92 (Fracture of foot and toe, except ankle) a billable code?

No. This is a category header that groups the codes for fracture of foot and toe, except ankle, and headers cannot be submitted on claims. Claims for fracture of foot and toe, except ankle need a more specific code from this category, such as S92.001A, S92.001B, and S92.001D.
