T83.0 — Mechanical complication of urinary catheter
Not billable
Is T83.0 billable?
No — T83.0 is a non-billable header code. T83.0 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 48 billable codes beneath T83.0.
