T82.4: Mechanical complication of vascular dialysis catheter

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

T82.4 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for mechanical complication of vascular dialysis catheter. 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.
