S91.106D — Unspecified open wound of unspecified lesser toe(s) without damage to nail, subsequent encounter
Is S91.106D billable?
Yes, but S91.106D is an unspecified code. S91.106D is a valid, billable ICD-10-CM code for encounters from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. However, S91.106D is an unspecified or catch-all code. Payers apply additional scrutiny to unspecified codes and many deny them when the medical record supports a more specific option, so check the documentation before selecting S91.106D — the more specific alternatives are listed below.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from S91

- open fracture of ankle, foot and toes (S92.-with 7th character B)
- traumatic amputation of ankle and foot (S98.-)
