About T32.86
T32.86 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Corrosions involving 80-89% of body surface with 60-69% third degree corrosion. 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 billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
Within T32.8 (Corrosions involving 80-89% of body surface), T32.86 is specifically for Corrosions involving 80-89% of body surface with 60-69% third degree corrosion. Related codes cover with 0% to 9% third degree corrosion (T32.80), with 10-19% third degree corrosion (T32.81), with 20-29% third degree corrosion (T32.82), with 30-39% third degree corrosion (T32.83), with 40-49% third degree corrosion (T32.84), with 50-59% third degree corrosion (T32.85), with 70-79% third degree corrosion (T32.87) and with 80-89% third degree corrosion (T32.88).
As a secondary diagnosis it is an MCC (major complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the highest-paying "with MCC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.
In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 927 (Extensive Burns or Full Thickness Burns with MV >96 Hours with Skin Graft, relative weight 27.846) and DRG 933 (Extensive Burns or Full Thickness Burns with MV >96 Hours without Skin Graft, relative weight 3.5048), 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 948.86 (burn [any degree] involving 80-89 percent of body surface with third degree burn, 60-69%).
