M Non-healing surgical wounds in ICD-10 ICD-10-CM is very specific and many easy-to-adapt codes such as non-healing wounds have been replaced by dedicated categories. Use T81.89X (A, D, or S) along with a secondary code for the complication/manifestation.
Peripheral vascular disease, unspecified 1 I73.9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. 2 The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM I73.9 became effective on October 1, 2019. 3 This is the American ICD-10-CM version of I73.9 - other international versions of ICD-10 I73.9 may differ.
My best guess is to code T81.89XS and S31.109D (the patient has an open wound due to a surgical procedure that is slow to heal but is NOT dehisced or infected, so it is an complication of surgery-sequela/open wound in the healing status) Vernell Hester.
Any suggestions for specifically coding non-healing surgical wounds in ICE10? There is nothing specific for "non-healing surgical wound" or for a surgical wound by site, ie. "non-healing surgical abdominal wound".
248 and I70. 238, these codes represent the PVD/atherosclerosis portion, if you go check them out it will have an instructional note to use additional codes to identify the type of "pressure ulcers" in this case, which based on the information provided, should be L97. 829 and L97819.

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is often used interchangeably with the term “peripheral vascular disease (PVD).” The term “PAD” is recommended to describe this condition because it includes venous in addition to arterial disorders.
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a slow and progressive circulation disorder. Narrowing, blockage, or spasms in a blood vessel can cause PVD. PVD may affect any blood vessel outside of the heart including the arteries, veins, or lymphatic vessels.
Peripheral vascular disease, or PVD, is a systemic disorder that involves the narrowing of peripheral blood vessels (vessels situated away from the heart or the brain) as a result of arteriosclerosis, or a buildup of plaque. This can happen with veins or arteries.
The term can include any disorder that affects any blood vessels. It is, though, often used as a synonym for peripheral artery disease. PVD is the most common disease of the arteries. The build-up of fatty material inside the vessels, a condition called atherosclerosis or hardening of the arteries, is what causes it.
