About N82.8

N82.8 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other female genital tract fistulae. It belongs to category N82 (fistulae involving female genital tract), block N80-N98 (noninflammatory disorders of female genital tract) and chapter 14 (diseases of the genitourinary system). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within N82, choose N82.8 (Other female genital tract fistulae) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: Vesicovaginal fistula (N82.0), other female urinary-genital tract fistulae (N82.1), fistula of vagina to small intestine (N82.2), fistula of vagina to large intestine (N82.3), other female intestinal-genital tract fistulae (N82.4), female genital tract-skin fistulae (N82.5) and female genital tract fistula, unspecified (N82.9).

As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 742 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy with CC/MCC, relative weight 1.8456), DRG 743 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy without CC/MCC, relative weight 1.2974), DRG 760 (Menstrual and Other Female Reproductive System Disorders with CC/MCC, relative weight 1.0129), DRG 761 (Menstrual and Other Female Reproductive System Disorders without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7041), DRG 791 (Prematurity with Major Problems, relative weight 4.1075) and DRG 793 (Full Term Neonate with Major Problems, relative weight 4.2195), in MDC 13 (Diseases and Disorders of the Female Reproductive System) and MDC 15 (Newborns and Other Neonates with Conditions Originating in the Perinatal Period), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.

It is on the CMS list of diagnoses consistent only with female patients (the sex-conflict edit itself was retired in FY2025).

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

Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 619.8 (other specified fistulas involving female genital tract).
