T39.311S is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for poisoning by propionic acid derivatives, accidental (unintentional), sequela. The 7th character S marks it as a sequela code, which reports a problem that remains after the original condition has resolved. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2027 (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) and groups to MS-DRG 922 through 923. The code is exempt from POA reporting. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Poisoning/toxic effect/adverse effects/underdosing, sequela.

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 nonopioid analgesics, antipyretics and antirheumatics (T39). Use the following options for the applicable episode of care:

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

Notes

General instructions on how these codes are used.

From Block T36-T50 Poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of drugs, medicaments and biological substances applies to 3,186 codes
  • The drug giving rise to the adverse effect should be identified by use of codes from categories T36-T50 with fifth or sixth character 5.

  • Use secondary code(s) from Chapter 20, External causes of morbidity, to indicate cause of injury. Codes within the T section that include the external cause do not require an additional external cause code

7th Character

Every code in the category takes a 7th character from the listed values, with the placeholder X filling any empty positions before it.

Medication Errors

Medicines treat infectious diseases, prevent problems from chronic diseases, and ease pain. But medicines can also cause harmful reactions if not used correctly. Errors can happen in the hospital, at the health care provider's office, at the pharmacy, or at home. You can help prevent errors by:

Questions About T39.311SOverview

Is T39.311S a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report poisoning by propionic acid derivatives, accidental (unintentional), sequela on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

What does the 7th character S in T39.311S mean?

The final character S makes this a sequela code: it reports a lingering problem that remains after the poisoning by propionic acid derivatives, accidental (unintentional) itself has resolved, not the original event.

What MS-DRG does T39.311S group to?

When poisoning by propionic acid derivatives, accidental (unintentional), sequela is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 923, 922, with relative weights from 0.9980 to 1.6248 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.

Is T39.311S exempt from POA reporting?

Yes. CMS lists this code among those exempt from present on admission reporting, so hospitals do not assign a POA indicator for poisoning by propionic acid derivatives, accidental (unintentional), sequela on inpatient claims. The code appears in the Poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of drugs, medicaments and biological substances (T36-T50) range of the CMS exempt list.

Can T39.311S be reported with a code from O29.3?

Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note at block T36-T50, which applies to T39.311S, lists "toxic reaction to local anesthesia in pregnancy (O29.3-)". An Excludes1 note means the excluded code is never reported together with this one; the only exception is when the two conditions are unrelated to each other (Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
