The patient's primary diagnostic code is the most important. Assuming the patient's primary diagnostic code is Z76. 89, look in the list below to see which MDC's "Assignment of Diagnosis Codes" is first.
However, coders should not code Z91. 81 as a primary diagnosis unless there is no other alternative, as this code is from the “Factors Influencing Health Status and Contact with Health Services,” similar to the V-code section from ICD-9.

Use secondary code (s) from Chapter 20, External causes of morbidity, to indicate cause of injury. Codes within the T section that include the external cause do not require an additional external cause code. Type 1 Excludes.
One significant difference between ICD-9 and ICD-10 is the need to assign a 7th character, also called a 7th character extension, to codes in certain ICD-10-CM categories.
At this time it appears that chiropractors should use the 'A' with injury codes for as long as they deem the patient to be receiving "active treatment" (that is , as long as the patient continues to progress). When the patient ceases to progress (when MMI has been reached) but the physician continues treatment to facilitate healing, then the 'D' should be applied. As a general rule, when the code requires a 'D', it would indicate a non-covered service.
All codes require a decimal after the third (3rd) character. 6. Laterality (side of the body affected) is required for certain codes. If a code requires laterality, it must be included in order for the code to be valid. The number 1 is used to indicate right side. The number 2 is used to indicate left side.
1. Codes are alphanumeric and may be up to 7 characters in length. 2. 1st character is always alpha; alpha characters may appear elsewhere in the code as well. (Alpha characters are NOT case sensitive.) 3. 2nd character is always numeric. 4. The remaining 5 digits may be any combination of alpha/numeric. 5.
"S" (Sequela) - Complications that arise as a direct result of a condition.
The number 1 is used to indicate right side.
The 5th and 6th character sub-classification represent the most accurate level of specificity.
Example 1: An initial encounter (character “A”) describes an episode of care during which the patient is receiving active treatment for the condition. Examples of active treatment are: surgical treatment, emergency department encounter, and evaluation and continuing treatment by the same or a different physician.
When reporting sequela (e), you usually will need to report two codes. The first describes the condition or nature of the sequela (e) and the second describes the sequela (e) or “late effect.”.
Example 2: A subsequent encounter (character “D”) describes an episode of care during which the patient receives routine care for her or his condition during the healing or recovery phase. Examples include cast change or removal, medication adjustment, and other follow-up visits following treatment of the injury or condition.
ICD-10-CM says the seventh character S is “for use for complications or conditions that arise as a direct result of an injury, such as scar formation after a burn. The scars are sequelae of the burn.” In other words, sequela are the late effects of an injury.#N#Perhaps the most common sequela is pain. Many patients receive treatment long after an injury has healed as a result of pain. Some patients might never have been treated for the injury at all. As time passes, the pain becomes intolerable and the patient seeks a pain remedy.#N#A late effect can occur only after the acute phase of the injury or illness has passed; therefore, you cannot report a code for the acute illness and a code for the late effect at the same encounter, for the same patient. The only exception occurs if both conditions exist (for example, the patient has a current cerebrovascular condition and deficits from an old cerebrovascular condition).#N#When reporting sequela (e), you usually will need to report two codes. The first describes the condition or nature of the sequela (e) and second the second describes the sequela (e) or “late effect.” For example, you may report M81.8 Other osteoporosis without current pathological fracture with E64.8 Sequelae of other nutritional deficiencies (calcium deficiency).#N#If a late effect code describes all of the relevant details, you should report that one code, only (e.g., I69.191 Dysphagia following nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage ).#N#For example: A patient suffers a low back injury that heals on its own. The patient isn’t seeking intervention for the initial injury, but for the pain that persists long after. The chronic pain is sequela of the injury. Such a visit may be reported as G89.21 Chronic pain due to trauma and S39.002S Unspecified injury of muscle, fascia and tendon of lower back, sequela.
ICD-10-CM defines subsequent encounters as “encounters after the patient has received active treatment of the injury and is receiving routine care for the injury during the healing or recovery phase. Examples of subsequent care are: cast change or removal, removal of external or internal fixation device, medication adjustment, other aftercare and follow up visits following injury treatment.”#N#A seventh character “D” is appropriate during the recovery phase, no matter how many times he has seen the provider for this problem, previously.#N#Note that ICD-10-CM guidelines do not definitively establish when “active treatment” becomes “routine care.” Active treatment occurs when the provider sees the patient and develops a plan of care. When the patient is following the plan, that is subsequent. If the provider needs to adjust the plan of care—for example, if the patient has a setback or must returns to the OR—the care becomes active, again.
W19.XXXA is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Unspecified fall, initial encounter . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 .
External causes of morbidity codes describe the circumstance causing an injury, not the nature of the injury, and therefore should not be used as a principal diagnosis. See also, External Cause of Injuries. W19 also applies to the following: Inclusion term (s): Accidental fall NOS.
