T32.7Corrosions involving 70-79% of body surface

T32.7 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Corrosions involving 70-79% of body surface. It belongs to category T32 (Corrosions classified according to extent of body surface involved), block T30-T32 (burns and corrosions of multiple and unspecified body regions) 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 8 subcodes must be used instead.

Within T32 (Corrosions classified according to extent of body surface involved), T32.7 is specifically for Corrosions involving 70-79% of body surface. Related codes cover less than 10% of body surface (T32.0), 10-19% of body surface (T32.1), 20-29% of body surface (T32.2), 30-39% of body surface (T32.3), 40-49% of body surface (T32.4), 50-59% of body surface (T32.5), 60-69% of body surface (T32.6), 80-89% of body surface (T32.8) and 1 more.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: T32.70 (with 0% to 9% third degree corrosion), T32.71 (with 10-19% third degree corrosion), T32.72 (with 20-29% third degree corrosion), T32.73 (with 30-39% third degree corrosion), T32.74 (with 40-49% third degree corrosion), T32.75 (with 50-59% third degree corrosion), T32.76 (with 60-69% third degree corrosion) and T32.77 (with 70-79% third degree corrosion).

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