T47.3X4S is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for poisoning by saline and osmotic laxatives, undetermined, 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.

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 agents primarily affecting the gastrointestinal system (T47). Use the following options for the applicable episode of care:

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

Clinical InformationClinical

  • Lactulose

    a synthetic disaccharide used in the treatment of constipation and hepatic encephalopathy. it has also been used in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal disorders. (from martindale, the extra pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p887)

  • Mannitol

    a diuretic and renal diagnostic aid related to sorbitol. it has little significant energy value as it is largely eliminated from the body before any metabolism can take place. it can be used to treat oliguria associated with kidney failure or other manifestations of inadequate renal function and has been used for determination of glomerular filtration rate. mannitol is also commonly used as a research tool in cell biological studies, usually to control osmolarity.

  • Mannitol Dehydrogenases

    sugar alcohol dehydrogenases that have specificity for mannitol. enzymes in this category are generally classified according to their preference for a specific reducing cofactor.

  • Mannitol Phosphates

    phosphoric acid esters of mannitol.

  • Mannomustine

    nitrogen mustard derivative alkylating agent used as antineoplastic. it causes severe bone marrow depression and is a powerful vesicant.

Questions About T47.3X4SOverview

Is T47.3X4S (Poisoning by saline and osmotic laxatives, undetermined) a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report poisoning by saline and osmotic laxatives, undetermined, sequela on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.

What does the 7th character S in T47.3X4S mean?

The final character S makes this a sequela code: it reports a lingering problem that remains after the poisoning by saline and osmotic laxatives, undetermined itself has resolved, not the original event.

What MS-DRG does T47.3X4S group to?

When poisoning by saline and osmotic laxatives, undetermined, 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 T47.3X4S 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 saline and osmotic laxatives, undetermined, sequela on inpatient claims.

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of T47.3X4S?

Under the General Equivalence Mappings, poisoning by saline and osmotic laxatives, undetermined, sequela converts to ICD-9-CM 909.0 (late eff drug poisoning) and E989 (late eff inj-undet circ). 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.
