T82.848S is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for pain due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, 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 chronic chest pain. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Complication, 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.

Pain

Pain is a signal in your nervous system that something may be wrong. It is an unpleasant feeling, such as a prick, tingle, sting, burn, or ache. Each person feels pain differently, even if the reason for the pain is the same. Pain may be sharp or dull. It may be mild or severe. Pain may come and go, or it may be constant.

Questions About T82.848SOverview

What is the ICD-10 code for pain due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, sequela?

The ICD-10-CM code for pain due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, sequela is T82.848S (sometimes written as T82848S). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Is T82.848S (Pain due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts) a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report pain due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, sequela on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

What does the 7th character S in T82.848S mean?

The final character S makes this a sequela code: it reports a lingering problem that remains after the pain due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts itself has resolved, not the original event.

What MS-DRG does T82.848S group to?

When pain due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, 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 T82.848S 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 pain due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, 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.
