About T28.3XXA

T28.3XXA is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for burn of internal genitourinary organs, initial encounter. It belongs to category T28 (burn and corrosion of other internal organs), block T26-T28 (burns and corrosions confined to eye and internal organs) 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 "A" means initial encounter: use it while the patient is receiving active treatment for the condition.

Use an additional code for: external cause code to identify the source and intent of the burn (X00-X19, X75-X77, X96-X98) and external cause code to identify place (Y92).

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 935 (Non-Extensive Burns, relative weight 2.4243), in MDC 22 (Burns), 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 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 947.4 (burn of vagina and uterus) and 947.8 (burn of other specified sites of internal organs).
