Y78.1Therapeutic (nonsurgical) and rehabilitative radiological devices associated with adverse incidents

Y78.1 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for therapeutic (nonsurgical) and rehabilitative radiological devices associated with adverse incidents. It belongs to category Y78 (radiological devices associated with adverse incidents), block Y70-Y82 (medical devices associated with adverse incidents in diagnostic and therapeutic use) and chapter 20 (external causes of morbidity). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within Y78 (radiological devices associated with adverse incidents), Y78.1 is specifically for therapeutic (nonsurgical) and rehabilitative radiological devices associated with adverse incidents. Related codes cover diagnostic and monitoring radiological devices associated with adverse incidents (Y78.0), prosthetic and other implants, materials and accessory radiological devices associated with adverse incidents (Y78.2), surgical instruments, materials and radiological devices (including sutures) associated with adverse incidents (Y78.3) and miscellaneous radiological devices associated with adverse incidents, not elsewhere classified (Y78.8).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
