Your rotator cuff is located in your shoulder area. It is made of muscles and tendons. It helps your shoulder to move and stay stable. Problems with the rotator cuff are common. They include tendinitis, bursitis, and injuries such as tears.
Rotator cuff tendons can become inflamed from frequent use or aging. Sometimes they are injured from a fall on an outstretched hand. Sports or jobs with repeated overhead motion can also damage the rotator cuff. Aging causes tendons to wear down, which can lead to a tear.

ICD-10 codes S46.011A (right shoulder) and S46.012A (left shoulder) are for strain/tear/rupture OR S43.421A (right shoulder) and S43.422A (left shoulder) are for sprain/tear/rupture.
The physician documents the injury diagnosis as a rotator cuff (supraspinatus) tear of the right shoulder. The physician, in the electronic medical record (EMR) appropriately selects ICD-10 code S46.011A. Because the ICD-10 code book reflects the industry description, the EMR printout of the medical documentation may state “strain of muscle(s) and tendon(s) of the rotator cuff of right shoulder”. Even though the formal industry description of S46.011A doesn’t include “tear”, it is a part of this ICD code due to mapping (see the mapping algorithm). Since the physician has documented a rotator cuff tear and has supporting medical documentation (MRI), BWC will base the injury description on the rotator cuff tear and BWC’s claim allowance would be modified to reflect the tear.
When a traumatic injury involves a sprain, strain or tear of the muscles or tendons of the rotator cuff of the shoulder , the provider will document the nature and description of the injury fully in the medical notes. BWC uses this description to identify the allowance.
