Specific Coding Applicable to Displacement of internal fixation device of other bones

Non-specific codes like T84.22 require more digits to indicate the appropriate level of specificity. Consider using any of the following ICD-10-CM codes with a higher level of specificity when coding for displacement of internal fixation device of other bones:

  • T84.220 for Displacement of internal fixation device of bones of hand and fingers - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T84.220A for initial encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T84.220D for subsequent encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T84.220S for sequela - BILLABLE CODE

  • T84.223 for Displacement of internal fixation device of bones of foot and toes - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T84.223A for initial encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T84.223D for subsequent encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T84.223S for sequela - BILLABLE CODE

  • T84.226 for Displacement of internal fixation device of vertebrae - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T84.226A for initial encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T84.226D for subsequent encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T84.226S for sequela - BILLABLE CODE

  • T84.228 for Displacement of internal fixation device of other bones - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T84.228A for initial encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T84.228D for subsequent encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T84.228S for sequela - BILLABLE CODE

Coding Guidelines

The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from block Complications of internal orthopedic prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (T84). Use the following options for the aplicable episode of care:

  • A - initial encounter
  • D - subsequent encounter
  • S - sequela

These terms are the conditions for which that code is to be used. The terms may be synonyms of the code title, or, in the case of "other specified" codes, the terms are a list of the various conditions assigned to that code.

Patient Education


Fractures

A fracture is a break, usually in a bone. If the broken bone punctures the skin, it is called an open or compound fracture. Fractures commonly happen because of car accidents, falls, or sports injuries. Other causes are low bone density and osteoporosis, which cause weakening of the bones. Overuse can cause stress fractures, which are very small cracks in the bone.

Symptoms of a fracture are:

  • Intense pain
  • Deformity - the limb looks out of place
  • Swelling, bruising, or tenderness around the injury
  • Numbness and tingling
  • Problems moving a limb

You need to get medical care right away for any fracture. An x-ray can tell if your bone is broken. You may need to wear a cast or splint. Sometimes you need surgery to put in plates, pins or screws to keep the bone in place.
