L55.1ICD-10-CM Code for Sunburn of second degree L55. 1.
CPT Code 16020 Dressings and/or debridement of partial-thickness burns, initial or subsequent; small (less than 5% total body surface area).
You must sequence your codes as 942.33 (3rd degree burn of the abdomen), 943.21 (2nd degree burn of the forearm), 944.11(1st degree burn of the index finger). Note: You should only code for the highest level burn when you assign multiple burns of differing degrees (severity) in the same body area.
Burn codes apply to thermal burns (except sunburns) that come from a heat source, such as fire, hot appliance, electricity and radiation. Corrosions are burns due to chemicals.
CPT® code 16030 indicates dressings and/or debridement of a large burn (e.g., more than 1 extremity, or greater than 10 percent TBSA).
First-degree (superficial) burns. First-degree burns affect only the outer layer of skin, the epidermis. The burn site is red, painful, dry, and has no blisters. Mild sunburn is an example. Long-term tissue damage is rare and often consists of an increase or decrease in the skin color.
Superficial partial-thickness burns characteristically form blisters within 24 hours between the epidermis and dermis. They are painful, red, and weeping and blanch with pressure (picture 2). These burns generally heal in 7 to 21 days, and, though scarring is unusual, pigment changes can occur.

Burn Types. A burn is tissue damage with partial or complete destruction of the skin caused by heat, chemicals, electricity, sunlight, or nuclear radiation. Proper selection of burn codes requires consideration of the location of the burn, severity, extent, and external cause in addition to laterality and encounter.
ICD-10 makes a distinction between burns and corrosions: Burn codes apply to thermal burns (except sunburns) that come from a heat source, such as fire, hot appliance, electricity, and radiation. Corrosions are burns due to chemicals.
The descriptions of codes in the T20-T28 range are first defined by an anatomical location of the body affected by burn or corrosion.
According to the American Burn Association, an estimated 486,000 hospital admissions and visits to hospital emergency departments occur annually for burn evaluation and treatment in the United States.
