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

Questions About T82.868SOverview
Is T82.868S a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report thrombosis due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, sequela on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
What does the 7th character S in T82.868S mean?
The final character S makes this a sequela code: it reports a lingering problem that remains after the thrombosis due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts itself has resolved, not the original event.
What MS-DRG does T82.868S group to?
When thrombosis due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, sequela is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 922, 923, with relative weights from 1.0177 to 1.7494 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Is T82.868S 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 thrombosis due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, sequela on inpatient claims.
What is the ICD-9 equivalent of T82.868S?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, thrombosis due to vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, sequela converts to ICD-9-CM 909.3 (late eff surg/med compl). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
