About T82.522

T82.522 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for displacement of artificial heart. It belongs to category T82 (complications of cardiac and vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts), block T80-T88 (complications of surgical and medical care, not elsewhere classified) 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 T82.52 (displacement of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants), T82.522 is specifically for displacement of artificial heart. Related codes cover surgically created arteriovenous fistula (T82.520), surgically created arteriovenous shunt (T82.521), balloon (counterpulsation) device (T82.523), infusion catheter (T82.524), umbrella device (T82.525), other cardiac and vascular devices and implants (T82.528) and unspecified cardiac and vascular devices and implants (T82.529).

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.
