T62.92XD — Toxic effect of unspecified noxious substance eaten as food, intentional self-harm, subsequent encounter
Is T62.92XD billable?
Yes, but T62.92XD is an unspecified code. T62.92XD is a valid, billable ICD-10-CM code for encounters from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. However, T62.92XD 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 T62.92XD — the more specific alternatives are listed below.

How is T62.92XD listed in the Alphabetic Index?
The Alphabetic Index lists these routes under T62.9, the nearest indexed parent of T62.92XD. Use them to find the family, then select the specific code.
- Poisoning › food NEC › noxious or naturally toxic (acute)
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from T51-T65
The conditions below can never be reported together with T62.92XD on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- contact with and (suspected) exposure to toxic substances (Z77.-)

The conditions below can never be reported together with T62.92XD on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 19
The conditions below are not part of T62.92XD, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, T62.92XD and the excluded code may both be reported.
How long has T62.92XD existed?
T62.92XD has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.
Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
