Why ICD-10 codes are important

T83.32xAThe correct code for missing IUD strings is T83. 32xA.
O26.30Retained intrauterine contraceptive device in pregnancy, unspecified trimester. O26. 30 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM O26.
T83.39XAICD-10-CM Code for Other mechanical complication of intrauterine contraceptive device, initial encounter T83. 39XA.
433: Encounter for removal and reinsertion of intrauterine contraceptive device.
We defined “retained IUDs” to refer to cases when the IUD was confirmed to be in the uterine cavity by ultrasound, and the attempts to remove the IUD in an office setting without ultrasound failed.
Pelvic infection or an IUD that is translocated, embedded or expelled can cause pain. In the first few weeks after placement, pain and cramping can be normal. Discomfort can be managed with NSAIDS and/or referral.
The correct modifier for a failed procedure is -52 (reduced services), which should be added to the procedure code for the insertion (58300). As for the supply, bill the payer for the IUD if an insertion attempt was made, because the attempt renders the supply unusable.
Z30. 430 Encounter for insertion of intrauterine contraceptive device in ICD-10-CM.
ICD-10 code R10. 2 for Pelvic and perineal pain is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
The insertion and/or removal of IUDs are reported using one of the following CPT codes:58300 Insertion of IUD.58301 Removal of IUD.
Report the supply separately using a HCPCS (Healthcare Procedural Coding System) code: J7307 Etonogestrel (contraceptive) implant system, including implant and supplies.
The code 11976 (Removal, implantable contraceptive capsules) remains a valid CPT code, however, because some patients still have Norplant systems that an ob-gyn will need to be remove.
