1 Common Hand Surgery Diagnosis Codes ICD-10

(1)

Common Hand Surgery diagnoSiS CodeS – iCd-10

This is a list of common codes for diagnoses about the hand and wrist. This is not an exhaustive list of all upper extremity codes.

FormaT of iCd-10:

ICD-10 codes have 3-7 digits (varies per code/diagnosis)

Format is XXX.XXXX

First is letter, second is number, remainder are letter or number; not case-sensitive

Some codes require a seventh character but not a fifth or sixth, so a ‘placeholder’ “X” is used (example: T84.9xxA)

FormaT oF THiS LiST:

For each ICD-10 code, use the list immediately below the code to “complete” the code (“fill in the blanks”). One must carry each code to the last character listed, unless otherwise

stated. The leftmost column lists the similar ICD-9 Code. This is not always a direct translation so read the description and use the correct code.

abbreviations for Fingers: r=right, L=left; 1=thumb, 2=index, 3=long/middle, 4=ring, 5=small/little.

example: initial encounter for a grade 3 open left Colles’ fracture = S52.5

S52.5_ _ _ Fracture of lower end of radius

FIFTH CHARACTER 0=unspecified, 1=radial styloid, 2=torus, 4=Smith’s, 5=Other Extraarticular, 6=Barton’s, 7=Other Intraarticular, 9=Other Fracture

SIXTH CHARACTER 1=right, 9=unspecified; FOR RADIAL STYLOID: 1=displaced right, 2=displaced left, 3=displaced unspecified, 4=nondisplaced right, 5=nondisplaced left, 6=nondisplaced unspecified SEVENTH CHARACTER Initial fracture encounter (a=closed, B=open grade 1 or 2, ); Subsequent encounters: Routine Healing (d=closed, e=open 1 or 2, F=open 3),

Delayed Healing (g=closed, H=open 1 or 2, J=open 3), Nonunion (K=closed, m=open 1 or 2, n=open 3), Malunion (P=closed, Q=open 1 or 2, r=open 3); S=Sequela for torus: Initial fracture encounter (a=closed); Subsequent encounters: d=Routine Healing, g=Delayed Healing, K=Nonunion, P=Malunion; S=Sequela

For some fractures, the SevenTH CHaraCTer list is lengthy as seen here; for other fractures the list is more concise; use the list shown with each code.

A - initial encounter for closed fracture

B - initial encounter for open fracture type I or II

C - initial encounter for open fracture type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC

D - subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine healing

E - subsequent encounter for open fracture type I or II with routine healing

F - subsequent encounter for open fracture type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC with routine healing

G - subsequent encounter for closed fracture with delayed healing

H - subsequent encounter for open fracture type I or II with delayed healing

J - subsequent encounter for open fracture type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC with delayed healing

K - subsequent encounter for closed fracture with nonunion

M - subsequent encounter for open fracture type I or II with nonunion

N - subsequent encounter for open fracture type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC with nonunion

P - subsequent encounter for closed fracture with malunion

Q - subsequent encounter for open fracture type I or II with malunion

R - subsequent encounter for open fracture type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC with malunion

S - sequela
