CMSSource: CMS FY 2026 ICD-10-CM dataset · Effective Oct 1, 2025 – Sep 30, 2026

T82 is a non-billable ICD-10-CM category code for complications of cardiac and vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, so it cannot be submitted on claims. Use a more specific code from this category instead, such as T82.01XA, T82.01XD, T82.01XS, and T82.02XA.

Coding GuidelinesGuidance

The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from block Complications of cardiac and vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (T82). Use the following options for the applicable episode of care:

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

Questions About T82Overview

Is T82 a billable code?

No. This is a category header that groups the codes for complications of cardiac and vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, and headers cannot be submitted on claims. Claims for complications of cardiac and vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts need a more specific code from this category, such as T82.01XA, T82.01XD, and T82.01XS.
