About X06.0

X06.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for exposure to ignition of plastic jewelry. It belongs to category X06 (exposure to ignition or melting of other clothing and apparel), 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 X06 (exposure to ignition or melting of other clothing and apparel), X06.0 is specifically for exposure to ignition of plastic jewelry. Related codes cover melting of plastic jewelry (X06.1), ignition of other clothing and apparel (X06.2) and melting of other clothing and apparel (X06.3).

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.
