External cause codes are used to report injuries, poisonings, and other external causes. (They are also valid for diseases that have an external source and health conditions such as a heart attack that occurred while exercising.)
Activity codes are found in category Y93. They are used to describe the patient's activity at the time of the injury. External cause status codes are found in category Y99.

The use of external cause of morbidity codes is supplemental to the application of ICD- 10-CM codes. External cause of morbidity codes are never to be recorded as a principal diagnosis (first-listed in non-inpatient settings). The appropriate injury code should be sequenced before any external cause codes.
An external cause status code should be assigned whenever an external cause code is assigned. Only one status code may be reported at the initial encounter and, just like the Activity and Place of Occurrence codes, Y99. 9 Unspecified External Cause status should not be reported if it is not stated within the record.
External cause codes are never reported as primary, that is they cannot be assigned as a principal diagnosis. They never reported alone. They can be reported with any condition due to an external cause and are not limited to injuries or poisonings.

Diagnosis Codes Never to be Used as Primary Diagnosis With the adoption of ICD-10, CMS designated that certain Supplementary Classification of External Causes of Injury, Poisoning, Morbidity (E000-E999 in the ICD-9 code set) and Manifestation ICD-10 Diagnosis codes cannot be used as the primary diagnosis on claims.
Codes from category Y92, Place of occurrence of the external cause, are secondary codes for use after other external cause codes to identify the location of the patient at the time of the injury or other condition. A place of occurrence code is used only once, at the initial encounter for treatment.

E813.1 Motor vehicle traffic accident involving collision with other vehicle injuring passenger in motor vehicle other than motorcycle. Some providers already use these codes voluntarily or when required on auto insurance claims; however, many billers are unfamiliar with external cause codes.

ICD-9-CM has been the standard since 1979, but has outlived its usefulness. Because of its structure, ICD-10-CM provides better data for research and statistical analysis than ICD-9-CM. Although there is no national mandate to report them, external cause codes provide a unique opportunity to report significant detail not available in ICD-9-CM.
External cause code reporting is voluntary (but is encouraged) when ICD-10-CM is implemented. It provides the opportunity to report enhanced detail, and could streamline the process of claims submission and payment adjudication. It may also improve the process of data collection for researchers and policy makers. Physicians and coders, however, must take the time to get familiar with coding guidelines and conventions to take advantage of this opportunity provided by ICD-10 .#N#Sources:#N#Medicare Learning Network, ICN 902143, April 2013#N#Complete and Easy ICD-10-CM Coding for Chiropractic, 2nd edition, The ChiroCode Institute, 2013.#N#“ICD-10-CM.
