About T19
T19 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for foreign body in genitourinary tract. It belongs to block T15-T19 (effects of foreign body entering through natural orifice) 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 7 subcodes must be used instead.
To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: T19.0 (urethra), T19.1 (bladder), T19.2 (vagina), T19.3 (uterus), T19.4 (penis), T19.8 (tract) and T19.9 (part unspecified).
The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of T19, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: complications due to implanted mesh (T83.7-), mechanical complications of contraceptive device (intrauterine) (vaginal) (T83.3-) and presence of contraceptive device (intrauterine) (vaginal) (Z97.5).
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
