S62.016 — Nondisplaced fracture of distal pole of navicular [scaphoid] bone of unspecified wrist
Is S62.016 billable?
No — S62.016 is a non-billable header code. S62.016 groups more specific codes and cannot be submitted on a claim. A valid ICD-10-CM code must be reported at the highest level of specificity available in its branch. Select one of the 7 billable codes beneath S62.016.

- Fracture, traumatic › carpal bone › navicular › distal pole › nondisplaced (abduction) (adduction) (separation)
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from S62
The conditions below can never be reported together with S62.016 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- traumatic amputation of wrist and hand (S68.-)
Use additional code — inherited from Chapter 19
Report an additional code alongside S62.016 to fully describe the condition. S62.016 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 S62.016, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S62.016 and the excluded code may both be reported.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from S60-S69
The conditions below are not part of S62.016, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S62.016 and the excluded code may both be reported.

How long has S62.016 existed?
S62.016 has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.
Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
