2027 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code T82.528SDisplacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants, sequela
T82.528S is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for displacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants, 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 malposition of inferior vena cava filter. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Complication, sequela.

Add a second code, after this one, to fully describe the condition.
- code to identify any retained foreign body, if applicable (Z18.-)
Notes
General instructions on how these codes are used.
- 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.
- The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from category T82
- Ainitial encounter
- Dsubsequent encounter
- Ssequela this code

Questions About T82.528SOverview
Is T82.528S 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, sequela on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
What does the 7th character S in T82.528S mean?
The final character S makes this a sequela code: it reports a lingering problem that remains after the displacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants itself has resolved, not the original event.
What MS-DRG does T82.528S group to?
When displacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants, 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 T82.528S 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 displacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants, 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.
What is the ICD-9 equivalent of T82.528S?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, displacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants, sequela converts to ICD-9-CM 909.3 (late eff surg/med compl). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
