S66.4 — Injury of intrinsic muscle, fascia and tendon of thumb at wrist and hand level
Is S66.4 billable?
No — S66.4 is a non-billable header code. S66.4 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 36 billable codes beneath S66.4.

Use additional code — inherited from Chapter 19
Report an additional code alongside S66.4 to fully describe the condition. S66.4 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 S66.4, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S66.4 and the excluded code may both be reported.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from S60-S69
The conditions below are not part of S66.4, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S66.4 and the excluded code may both be reported.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from S66
The conditions below are not part of S66.4, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S66.4 and the excluded code may both be reported.
- sprain of joints and ligaments of wrist and hand (S63.-)
Code also — inherited from S66
Two codes may be needed to describe the condition fully. Whether S66.4 is sequenced first depends on the reason for the encounter.
- any associated open wound (S61.-)

How long has S66.4 existed?
S66.4 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.
