About X01.3
X01.3 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for fall due to uncontrolled fire, not in building or structure. It belongs to category X01 (exposure to uncontrolled fire, not in building or structure), block X00-X08 (exposure to smoke, fire and flames) 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 X01 (exposure to uncontrolled fire, not in building or structure), X01.3 is specifically for fall due to uncontrolled fire, not in building or structure. Related codes cover exposure to flames in uncontrolled fire, not in building or structure (X01.0), exposure to smoke in uncontrolled fire, not in building or structure (X01.1), hit by object due to uncontrolled fire, not in building or structure (X01.4) and other exposure to uncontrolled fire, not in building or structure (X01.8).
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.
