T50.913D — Poisoning by multiple unspecified drugs, medicaments and biological substances, assault, subsequent encounter
Is T50.913D billable?
Yes, but T50.913D is an unspecified code. T50.913D is a valid, billable ICD-10-CM code for encounters from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. However, T50.913D 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 T50.913D.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from T36-T50
The conditions below can never be reported together with T50.913D on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
