T80.911S is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction, unspecified incompatibility, 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. Coders also document this condition as anemia caused by alloimmune destruction of transfused red cells. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Complication, sequela.

Notes

General instructions on how these codes are used.

From Chapter 19 (S00-T88) Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes applies to 41,187 codes
  • 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.

Questions About T80.911SOverview

Is T80.911S a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction, unspecified incompatibility, sequela on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

What does the 7th character S in T80.911S mean?

The final character S makes this a sequela code: it reports a lingering problem that remains after the delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction, unspecified incompatibility itself has resolved, not the original event.

What MS-DRG does T80.911S group to?

When delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction, unspecified incompatibility, 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 T80.911S 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 delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction, unspecified incompatibility, sequela on inpatient claims. The code appears in the Complications of surgical and medical care, not elsewhere classified (T80-T88) range of the CMS exempt list.

Can T80.911S be reported with a code from T80.31?

Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note at T80.91, which applies to T80.911S, lists "ABO incompatibility with hemolytic transfusion reaction (T80.31-)". 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).
