I97.4
I97.4 — Intraoperative hemorrhage and hematoma of a circulatory system organ or structure complicating a procedure
Non-billable headerICD-10-CM
I97.4 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for intraoperative hemorrhage and hematoma of a circulatory system organ or structure complicating a procedure. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.
Excludes1 — never code together
These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.
- intraoperative hemorrhage and hematoma of a circulatory system organ or structure due to accidental puncture and laceration during a procedure (I97.5-)
Excludes2 — not included here, but may coexist
The excluded condition is not part of this code, but a patient can have both. You may code both.
- intraoperative cerebrovascular hemorrhage complicating a procedure (G97.3-)
Risk adjustment
I97.4 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.
Code to one of these instead I97.4
2 child codes. Green means billable.
