T80Complications following infusion, transfusion and therapeutic injection

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

T80 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for complications following infusion, transfusion and therapeutic injection. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below. This code also requires a 7th character before it is complete.

The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from category T80

S
sequela

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.

  • bone marrow transplant rejection (T86.01)
  • febrile nonhemolytic transfusion reaction (R50.84)
  • fluid overload due to transfusion (E87.71)
  • posttransfusion purpura (D69.51)
  • transfusion associated circulatory overload (TACO) (E87.71)
  • transfusion (red blood cell) associated hemochromatosis (E83.111)
  • transfusion related acute lung injury (TRALI) (J95.84)

Includes

Conditions this code covers.

  • complications following perfusion

Other codes that can never be billed with T80

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at T80. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading T80 alone.

  • L50Urticaria
  • L95Vasculitis limited to skin, not elsewhere classified
  • R57Shock, not elsewhere classified
  • T78.2Anaphylactic shock, unspecified
  • T78.2XXAAnaphylactic shock, unspecified, initial encounter
  • T78.2XXDAnaphylactic shock, unspecified, subsequent encounter
  • T78.2XXSAnaphylactic shock, unspecified, sequela
  • T78.3Angioneurotic edema

Risk adjustment

T80 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 T80

10 child codes. Green means billable.
