The rotator cuff tear condition is one of the most common conditions experienced among patients these days. This is why so many medical personnel searches for the ICD 10 Code for rotator cuff tear, just like you. The ICD 10 Code for Rotator Cuff Tear is M75.101. And this code is billable and required both for diagnosis and treatment.

The section for “Operation (s) Performed” includes the following entries:
What Are The Causes And Complications Of A Rotator Cuff Tear?
ICD-10 Code for Complete rotator cuff tear or rupture of right shoulder, not specified as traumatic- M75. 121- Codify by AAPC.
Arthroscopic surgical procedure converted to open procedure The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM Z53. 33 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of Z53.
Surgeons use one of three surgical options for repairing rotator cuff tears: open repair, arthroscopic repair, and mini-open repair, which combines both open and arthroscopic techniques.
ICD-10-CM Code for Bursitis of right shoulder M75. 51.
Use code 23410 for repair of an acute rupture of the rotator cuff and code 23412 for repair of a chronic rotator cuff injury.
M75. 101 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 M75. 101 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Rotator cuff repair is surgery to repair a torn tendon in the shoulder. The procedure can be done with a large (open) incision or with shoulder arthroscopy, which uses smaller incisions.
During open repair, a surgical incision is made and a large muscle (the deltoid) is gently moved out the way to do the surgery. Open repair is done for large or more complex tears. During arthroscopy, the arthroscope is inserted through a small incision. The scope is connected to a video monitor.
If you have a torn rotator cuff, your doctor may recommend arthroscopic surgery to fix the tear. During an arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, your surgeon inserts a small camera, called an arthroscope, into your shoulder joint.
Subacromial bursitis is a common etiology of shoulder pain. It results from inflammation of the bursa, a sac of tissue present under the acromion process of the shoulder. It is usually brought about by repetitive overhead activities or trauma.
What is bursitis of the shoulder? Bursitis of the shoulder (impingement syndrome) occurs when there is swelling and redness between the top of the arm bone and the tip of the shoulder. Between these bones lie the tendons of the rotator cuff and a fluid-filled sac called the bursa, which protects the tendons.
The subacromial space refers to the space above the shoulder's glenohumeral joint (ball-and-socket joint) and below the acromion, the top-most bone of the shoulder. Soft tissues, such as the bicep tendon, rotator cuff, and bursa are located in the subacromial space.
