About I82.89

I82.89 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for embolism and thrombosis of other specified veins. It belongs to category I82 (other venous embolism and thrombosis), block I80-I89 (diseases of veins, lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes, not elsewhere classified) and chapter 9 (diseases of the circulatory system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 2 subcodes must be used instead.

Within I82.8, choose I82.89 (other specified veins) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: superficial veins of lower extremities (I82.81).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: I82.890 (veins) and I82.891 (veins).

Code first venous embolism and thrombosis complicating: abortion, ectopic or molar pregnancy (O00-O07, O08.7) and pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O22.-, O87.-).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
