2027 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code T45.1X2APoisoning by antineoplastic and immunosuppressive drugs, intentional self-harm, initial encounter
T45.1X2A is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for poisoning by antineoplastic and immunosuppressive drugs, intentional self-harm, 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 917 through 918. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under External cause codes: intent of injury, self-harm; External cause codes: poisoning by drug; and Poisoning by drugs, initial encounter.
For Medicare Advantage risk adjustment, T45.1X2A maps to CMS-HCC Category 155 (Major Depression, Moderate or Severe, without Psychosis) under the V28 model, adding a risk factor of about 0.299 for a community, non-dual, aged beneficiary in payment year 2027.

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 primarily systemic and hematological agents, not elsewhere classified (T45). Use the following options for the applicable episode of care:
- A - initial encounter
- D - subsequent encounter
- S - sequela

Instructional NotesGuidance
Instructions from the official ICD-10-CM Tabular List that apply to T45.1X2A: its own notes plus those printed at T45.1, T45, block T36-T50, and Chapter 19. A note printed at a category, block or chapter applies to every code under it.
Includes
Further defines, or gives examples of, the content of the category.
- adverse effect of correct substance properly administered
- poisoning by overdose of substance
- poisoning by wrong substance given or taken in error
- underdosing by (inadvertently) (deliberately) taking less substance than prescribed or instructed
Excludes1
Not coded here: the excluded code is never reported together with this one, unless the two conditions are unrelated.
- toxic reaction to local anesthesia in pregnancy (O29.3-)
Excludes2
Not included here: the excluded condition is not part of this code, but a patient may have both, so both codes may be reported.
Code First
The underlying condition named in the note is sequenced before this code.
Use Additional Code
Add a second code, after this one, to fully describe the condition.
- code to identify any retained foreign body, if applicable (Z18.-)
Notes
General instructions on how these codes are used.
- 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
- The chapter uses the S-section for coding different types of injuries related to single body regions and the T-section to cover injuries to unspecified body regions as well as poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes.
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.
- The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from category T45
- Ainitial encounter this code
- Dsubsequent encounter
- Ssequela

Poisoning
A poison is any substance that is harmful to your body. You might swallow it, inhale it, inject it, or absorb it through your skin. Any substance can be poisonous if too much is taken. Poisons can include:

Questions About T45.1X2AOverview
Is T45.1X2A a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report poisoning by antineoplastic and immunosuppressive drugs, intentional self-harm, initial encounter on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
What does the 7th character A in T45.1X2A mean?
The final character A marks the initial encounter: use it while the patient is receiving active treatment for poisoning by antineoplastic and immunosuppressive drugs, intentional self-harm, such as an emergency visit or first evaluation.
What MS-DRG does T45.1X2A group to?
When poisoning by antineoplastic and immunosuppressive drugs, intentional self-harm, initial encounter is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 918, 917, with relative weights from 0.8716 to 1.5698 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Can T45.1X2A be reported with T45.A?
Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note at T45.1, which applies to T45.1X2A, lists "poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of immune checkpoint inhibitors and immunostimulant drugs (T45.A)". 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).
What is the ICD-9 equivalent of T45.1X2A?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, poisoning by antineoplastic and immunosuppressive drugs, intentional self-harm, initial encounter converts to ICD-9-CM 963.1 (pois-antineopl/immunosup) and E950.4 (poison-drug/medicin NEC). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
What HCC is T45.1X2A?
T45.1X2A (poisoning by antineoplastic and immunosuppressive drugs, intentional self-harm, initial encounter) maps to CMS-HCC Category 155 (Major Depression, Moderate or Severe, without Psychosis), commonly written as HCC 155, in the CMS-HCC V28 model used for Medicare Advantage risk adjustment in payment year 2027. It mapped to HCC 59 under the retired V24 model. It also maps in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22), ESRD (V21), and ESRD (V24) models. In the Part D prescription drug model it maps to RxHCC 132.
Does T45.1X2A risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?
Yes. When documented and reported on a Medicare Advantage encounter, T45.1X2A adds a risk adjustment factor of about 0.299 to the beneficiary's RAF score for a community, non-dual, aged enrollee (published V28 weights range from 0.108 to 0.316 depending on the payment segment). A more severe related category (HCC 151, HCC 152, HCC 153, and HCC 154) supersedes it when both are reported. See the full factor table on the HCC 155 category page.
