About T74.62XD
T74.62XD is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for child forced labor exploitation, confirmed, subsequent encounter. It belongs to category T74 (adult and child abuse, neglect and other maltreatment, confirmed), block T66-T78 (other and unspecified effects of external causes) 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 "D" means subsequent encounter: use it for encounters after active treatment, while the patient is healing or recovering.
Use an additional code, if applicable, to identify any associated current injury. Use an additional code for: external cause code to identify perpetrator, if known (Y07.-).
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 949 (Aftercare with CC/MCC, relative weight 1.123) and DRG 950 (Aftercare without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7664), in MDC 23 (Factors Influencing Health Status and Other Contacts with Health Services), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
The Medicare Code Editor expects this diagnosis only for patients age 0 through 17; other ages trigger an age-conflict edit.
It is exempt from present-on-admission (POA) reporting, so no POA indicator is required.
It was added in FY2019, effective October 1, 2018.
