T85.12Displacement of implanted electronic stimulator of nervous system

T85.12 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for displacement of implanted electronic stimulator of nervous system. It belongs to category T85 (complications of other internal 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 5 subcodes must be used instead.

Within T85.1 (mechanical complication of implanted electronic stimulator of nervous system), T85.12 is specifically for displacement of implanted electronic stimulator of nervous system. Related codes cover breakdown (mechanical) of implanted electronic stimulator of nervous system (T85.11) and other mechanical complication of implanted electronic stimulator of nervous system (T85.19).

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.
