CMSSource: CMS FY 2027 ICD-10-CM dataset · Effective Oct 1, 2026 – Sep 30, 2027

T82.41XS is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for breakdown (mechanical) of vascular dialysis catheter, 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. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Complication, sequela.

T82.41XS no longer risk-adjusts for Medicare Advantage: it mapped to HCC 134 under the retired CMS-HCC V24 model through payment year 2025 but maps to no category in the live V28 model. It still risk-adjusts in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22) category 134, ESRD (V21) category 134, and ESRD (V24) category 134 for payment year 2027.

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

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.

From T82 Complications of cardiac and vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts applies to 297 codes
  • The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from category T82

Questions About T82.41XSOverview

What is the ICD-10 code for breakdown (mechanical) of vascular dialysis catheter, sequela?

The ICD-10-CM code for breakdown (mechanical) of vascular dialysis catheter, sequela is T82.41XS (sometimes written as T8241XS). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Is T82.41XS (Breakdown (mechanical) of vascular dialysis catheter) a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report breakdown (mechanical) of vascular dialysis catheter, sequela on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

What does the 7th character S in T82.41XS mean?

The final character S makes this a sequela code: it reports a lingering problem that remains after the breakdown (mechanical) of vascular dialysis catheter itself has resolved, not the original event.

What MS-DRG does T82.41XS group to?

When breakdown (mechanical) of vascular dialysis catheter, 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 T82.41XS 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 breakdown (mechanical) of vascular dialysis catheter, 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.

Does T82.41XS risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?

Not for Medicare Advantage. T82.41XS mapped to HCC 134 in the retired CMS-HCC V24 model, which last determined payment in 2025, but it maps to no category in the live V28 model; see all codes that no longer risk-adjust. It still risk-adjusts in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22) category 134 (Dialysis Status), ESRD (V21) category 134 (Dialysis Status), and ESRD (V24) category 134 (Dialysis Status).
