About S32.511S
S32.511S is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for fracture of superior rim of right pubis, sequela. It belongs to category S32 (fracture of lumbar spine and pelvis), 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 billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
The 7th character "S" means sequela: use it for complications or conditions that arise as a direct result of the original condition.
Code first: any associated spinal cord and spinal nerve injury (S34.-).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 551 (Medical Back Problems with MCC, relative weight 1.6358) and DRG 552 (Medical Back Problems without MCC, relative weight 0.9584), in MDC 08 (Diseases and Disorders of the Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue), 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 exempt from present-on-admission (POA) reporting, so no POA indicator is required.
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 905.1 (late effect of fracture of spine and trunk without mention of spinal cord lesion).
