W01.0Fall on same level from slipping, tripping and stumbling without subsequent striking against object

W01.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for fall on same level from slipping, tripping and stumbling without subsequent striking against object. It belongs to category W01 (fall on same level from slipping, tripping and stumbling), block W00-W19 (slipping, tripping, stumbling and falls) and chapter 20 (external causes of morbidity). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within W01, choose W01.0 (without subsequent striking against object) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: with subsequent striking against object (W01.1).

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.
