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

Clinical InformationClinical

  • Candidemia

    a form of invasive candidiasis where species of candida are present in the blood.
  • Fungemia

    the presence of fungi circulating in the blood. opportunistic fungal sepsis is seen most often in immunosuppressed patients with severe neutropenia or in postoperative patients with intravenous catheters and usually follows prolonged antibiotic therapy.
  • Candida

    a genus of yeast-like mitosporic saccharomycetales fungi characterized by producing yeast cells, mycelia, pseudomycelia, and blastophores. it is commonly part of the normal flora of the skin, mouth, intestinal tract, and vagina, but can cause a variety of infections, including candidiasis; onychomycosis; vulvovaginal candidiasis; and candidiasis, oral (thrush).
  • Candidemia

    a bloodstream infection resulting from a species of candida.
  • Cordonnier Grade 2 Fungal Complication, Candidemia without Severe Sepsis|Grade 2 Candidemia without Severe Sepsis and without Focus

    any candidemia without severe sepsis and without focus.
  • Cordonnier Grade 2 Fungal Complication, Deep Candida Infection without Candidemia|Grade 2 Deep Candida Infection without Candidemia

    any deep candida infection without candidemia.
  • Cordonnier Grade 3 Fungal Complication, Candidemia with Either Sepsis or Deep Focus|Grade 3 Candidemia with Either Sepsis or Deep Focus

    any candidemia with either sepsis or deep focus.
  • Fungemia

    a laboratory test result indicating the presence of fungi or yeasts in the blood.
  • Fungemia, CTCAE|Fungemia

    a disorder characterized by the presence of fungus in the blood stream.
  • Grade 2 Fungemia, CTCAE|Grade 2 Fungemia

    moderate symptoms; medical intervention indicated

Questions About T82.7XXAOverview

Is T82.7XXA a billable code?

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

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

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

What MS-DRG does T82.7XXA group to?

When infection and inflammatory reaction due to other cardiac and vascular devices, implants and grafts, 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.

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of T82.7XXA?

Under the General Equivalence Mappings, infection and inflammatory reaction due to other cardiac and vascular devices, implants and grafts, initial encounter converts to ICD-9-CM 996.61 (react-cardiac dev/graft) and 996.62 (react-oth vasc dev/graft). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
