T82.9XXD — Unspecified complication of cardiac and vascular prosthetic device, implant and graft, subsequent encounter

BillableUnspecified

Is T82.9XXD billable?

Yes, but T82.9XXD is an unspecified code. T82.9XXD is a valid, billable ICD-10-CM code for encounters from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. However, T82.9XXD 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 T82.9XXD — the more specific alternatives are listed below.

How long has T82.9XXD existed?

T82.9XXD has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.
