Coding GuidelinesGuidance
When coding a poisoning or reaction to the improper use of a medication (e.g., overdose, wrong substance given or taken in error, wrong route of administration), first assign the appropriate code from categories T36-T50. The poisoning codes have an associated intent as their 5th or 6th character (accidental, intentional self-harm, assault and undetermined). If the intent of the poisoning is unknown or unspecified, code the intent as accidental intent. The undetermined intent is only for use if the documentation in the record specifies that the intent cannot be determined. Use additional code(s) for all manifestations of poisonings.
The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from block Poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of systemic antibiotics (T36). Use the following options for the applicable episode of care:
- A - initial encounter
- D - subsequent encounter
- S - sequela

Questions About T36.7X2SOverview
Is T36.7X2S a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report poisoning by antifungal antibiotics, systemically used, intentional self-harm, sequela on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
What does the 7th character S in T36.7X2S mean?
The final character S makes this a sequela code: it reports a lingering problem that remains after the poisoning by antifungal antibiotics, systemically used, intentional self-harm itself has resolved, not the original event.
What MS-DRG does T36.7X2S group to?
When poisoning by antifungal antibiotics, systemically used, intentional self-harm, sequela is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 922, 923, with relative weights from 1.0177 to 1.7494 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Is T36.7X2S exempt from POA reporting?

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of T36.7X2S?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, poisoning by antifungal antibiotics, systemically used, intentional self-harm, sequela converts to ICD-9-CM 909.0 (late eff drug poisoning) and E959 (late eff of self-injury). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
Footnotes
[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
