About S30

S30 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for superficial injury of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals. It belongs to block S30-S39 (injuries to the abdomen, lower back, lumbar spine, pelvis and external genitals) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 6 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: S30.0 (pelvis), S30.1 (wall), S30.2 (organs), S30.3 (anus), S30.8 (genitals) and S30.9 (genitals).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of S30, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: superficial injury of hip (S70.-).

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