T41.293S is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for poisoning by other general anesthetics, assault, 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 2026 (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026) 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 anesthetics and therapeutic gases (T41). Use the following options for the applicable episode of care:

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

Clinical InformationClinical

  • Ketamine

    a cyclohexanone derivative used for induction of anesthesia. its mechanism of action is not well understood, but ketamine can block nmda receptors (receptors, n-methyl-d-aspartate) and may interact with sigma receptors.
  • Propanidid

    an intravenous anesthetic that has been used for rapid induction of anesthesia and for maintenance of anesthesia of short duration. (from martindale, the extra pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p918)
  • Propofol

    an intravenous anesthetic agent which has the advantage of a very rapid onset after infusion or bolus injection plus a very short recovery period of a couple of minutes. (from smith and reynard, textbook of pharmacology, 1992, 1st ed, p206). propofol has been used as anticonvulsants and antiemetics.
  • Propofol Infusion Syndrome

    rare and often fatal drug complication which affects patients undergoing long-term treatment with high doses of propofol. it is characterized by metabolic acidosis; hyperlipidemia; rhabdomyolysis; cardiovascular circulatory collapse; cardiac failure; and kidney failure.
  • Tiletamine

    proposed anesthetic with possible anticonvulsant and sedative properties.

Questions About T41.293SOverview

Is T41.293S (Poisoning by other general anesthetics, assault) a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report poisoning by other general anesthetics, assault, sequela on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.

What does the 7th character S in T41.293S mean?

The final character S makes this a sequela code: it reports a lingering problem that remains after the poisoning by other general anesthetics, assault itself has resolved, not the original event.

What MS-DRG does T41.293S group to?

When poisoning by other general anesthetics, assault, 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 T41.293S 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 other general anesthetics, assault, sequela on inpatient claims.

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of T41.293S?

Under the General Equivalence Mappings, poisoning by other general anesthetics, assault, sequela converts to ICD-9-CM 909.0 (late eff drug poisoning) and E969 (late effect assault). 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.
