T22.7 — Corrosion of third degree of shoulder and upper limb, except wrist and hand
Is T22.7 billable?
No — T22.7 is a non-billable header code. T22.7 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 60 billable codes beneath T22.7.
