ICD-10 Code for Traumatic Fracture

Also indexed as (abduction) (adduction) (separation)

The ICD-10-CM code for traumatic Fracture is T14.8 — Other injury of unspecified body region. This is the code the Alphabetic Index gives for traumatic Fracture with no further qualifier, valid for FY2027 (October 1, 2026 – September 30, 2027).

Not billable

T14.8 cannot be submitted on a claim. It is a header code, so a more specific code from the list below is required.

Which traumatic Fracture code should you use?

The Alphabetic Index lists 578 codes under Fracture, traumatic. Which one applies depends on the qualifier documented in the record — the type, site, cause, or associated condition. Find the qualifier below, then verify the code in the Tabular List before using it.
