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

T82.528A is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for displacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants, initial encounter. The 7th character A marks it as an initial encounter code, used while the patient is receiving active treatment. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2026 (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026) and groups to MS-DRG 314 through 316. As a secondary diagnosis, it counts as a complication or comorbidity (CC) and moves an inpatient stay to a higher severity level within its MS-DRG family. It does not count, however, when the principal diagnosis is one of 93 closely related codes. Coders also document this condition as malposition of inferior vena cava filter. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Complication of cardiovascular device, implant or graft, initial encounter.

T82.528A no longer risk-adjusts for Medicare Advantage: it mapped to HCC 176 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 176, ESRD (V21) category 176, and ESRD (V24) category 176 for payment year 2026.

Questions About T82.528AOverview

Is T82.528A a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report displacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants, initial encounter on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.

What does the 7th character A in T82.528A mean?

The final character A marks the initial encounter: use it while the patient is receiving active treatment for displacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants, such as an emergency visit or first evaluation.

What MS-DRG does T82.528A group to?

When displacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants, initial encounter is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 314, 315, 316, with relative weights from 0.6821 to 2.0852 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.

Is T82.528A a CC or MCC?

CMS lists T82.528A as a CC (complication or comorbidity) for FY 2026. Reported as a secondary diagnosis, it moves the inpatient stay to a higher-weighted DRG within its severity family. It does not count when the principal diagnosis is one of the 93 closely related codes in its exclusion list.

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of T82.528A?

Under the General Equivalence Mappings, displacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants, initial encounter converts to ICD-9-CM 996.09 (malfunc card dev/grf NEC) and 996.1 (malfunc vasc device/graf). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.

Does T82.528A risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?

Not for Medicare Advantage. T82.528A mapped to HCC 176 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 176 (Complications of Specified Implanted Device or Graft), ESRD (V21) category 176 (Complications of Specified Implanted Device or Graft), and ESRD (V24) category 176 (Complications of Specified Implanted Device or Graft).
