T65.3X1S is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for toxic effect of nitroderivatives and aminoderivatives of benzene and its homologues, 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 2026 (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026) and groups to MS-DRG 922 through 923. The code is exempt from POA reporting. Coders also document this condition as accidental exposure to dinitro compound herbicide. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Poisoning/toxic effect/adverse effects/underdosing, sequela.

Questions About T65.3X1SOverview

Is T65.3X1S a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report toxic effect of nitroderivatives and aminoderivatives of benzene and its homologues, accidental (unintentional), sequela on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.

What does the 7th character S in T65.3X1S mean?

The final character S makes this a sequela code: it reports a lingering problem that remains after the toxic effect of nitroderivatives and aminoderivatives of benzene and its homologues, accidental (unintentional) itself has resolved, not the original event.

What MS-DRG does T65.3X1S group to?

When toxic effect of nitroderivatives and aminoderivatives of benzene and its homologues, accidental (unintentional), 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 T65.3X1S 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 toxic effect of nitroderivatives and aminoderivatives of benzene and its homologues, accidental (unintentional), sequela on inpatient claims.

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of T65.3X1S?

Under the General Equivalence Mappings, toxic effect of nitroderivatives and aminoderivatives of benzene and its homologues, accidental (unintentional), sequela converts to ICD-9-CM 909.1 (late eff nonmed substanc) and E929.2 (late eff acc poisoning). 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.
