Use additional code — inherited from Chapter 19
Report an additional code alongside S02.832 to fully describe the condition. S02.832 is sequenced first.
- code to identify any retained foreign body, if applicable (Z18.-)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 19
The conditions below are not part of S02.832, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S02.832 and the excluded code may both be reported.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from S00-S09
