About S92.04

S92.04 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other fracture of tuberosity of calcaneus. It belongs to category S92 (fracture of foot and toe, except ankle), block S90-S99 (injuries to the ankle and foot) 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 S92.0, choose S92.04 (Other fracture of tuberosity of calcaneus) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: unspecified fracture of calcaneus (S92.00), fracture of body of calcaneus (S92.01), fracture of anterior process of calcaneus (S92.02), avulsion fracture of tuberosity of calcaneus (S92.03), other extraarticular fracture of calcaneus (S92.05) and intraarticular fracture of calcaneus (S92.06).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter for closed fracture, B for initial encounter for open fracture, D for subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing, G for subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing, K for subsequent encounter for fracture with nonunion, P for subsequent encounter for fracture with malunion and 1 more. 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.
