S60.4Other superficial injuries of other fingers

S60.4 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other superficial injuries of other fingers. It belongs to category S60 (superficial injury of wrist, hand and fingers), block S60-S69 (injuries to the wrist, hand and fingers) 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.

Within S60, choose S60.4 (Other superficial injuries of other fingers) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: contusion of finger without damage to nail (S60.0), contusion of finger with damage to nail (S60.1), contusion of wrist and hand (S60.2), other superficial injuries of thumb (S60.3), other superficial injuries of hand (S60.5), other superficial injuries of wrist (S60.8) and unspecified superficial injury of wrist, hand and fingers (S60.9).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

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