How is S82.89 listed in the Alphabetic Index?
These are the routes through the Alphabetic Index that lead to S82.89. They show the wording a clinician may have documented, which often differs from the Tabular description.
- Fracture, traumatic › leg › specified site NEC (abduction) (adduction) (separation)
Inclusion terms
Alternative wording in documentation that is classified to S82.89.
- Fracture of ankle NOS
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from S82
The conditions below can never be reported together with S82.89 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 lower leg (S88.-)
Use additional code — inherited from Chapter 19
Report an additional code alongside S82.89 to fully describe the condition. S82.89 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 S82.89, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S82.89 and the excluded code may both be reported.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from S80-S89
The conditions below are not part of S82.89, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S82.89 and the excluded code may both be reported.
