T37.92Poisoning by unspecified systemic anti-infective and antiparasitics, intentional self-harm

T37.92 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for poisoning by unspecified systemic anti-infective and antiparasitics, intentional self-harm. It belongs to category T37 (poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of other systemic anti-infectives and antiparasitics), block T36-T50 (poisoning by, adverse effects of and underdosing of drugs, medicaments and biological substances) 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 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within T37.9, choose T37.92 (Poisoning by unspecified systemic anti-infective and antiparasitics, intentional self-harm) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: poisoning by unspecified systemic anti-infective and antiparasitics, accidental (unintentional) (T37.91), poisoning by unspecified systemic anti-infective and antiparasitics, assault (T37.93), poisoning by unspecified systemic anti-infective and antiparasitics, undetermined (T37.94), adverse effect of unspecified systemic anti-infective and antiparasitic (T37.95) and underdosing of unspecified systemic anti-infectives and antiparasitics (T37.96).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. 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.
