T24.7 — Corrosion of third degree of lower limb, except ankle and foot
Is T24.7 billable?
No — T24.7 is a non-billable header code. T24.7 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 45 billable codes beneath T24.7.

Code first
The underlying condition below must be sequenced before T24.7. T24.7 describes a manifestation and cannot be the principal or first-listed diagnosis.
- (T51-T65) to identify chemical and intent
Use additional code
Report an additional code alongside T24.7 to fully describe the condition. T24.7 is sequenced first.
- external cause code to identify place (Y92)
Use additional code — inherited from Chapter 19
Report an additional code alongside T24.7 to fully describe the condition. T24.7 is sequenced first.
- code to identify any retained foreign body, if applicable (Z18.-)
Use additional code — inherited from T20-T25
