T85.63 — Leakage of other specified internal prosthetic devices, implants and grafts
Is T85.63 billable?
No — T85.63 is a non-billable header code. T85.63 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 15 billable codes beneath T85.63.
