Z97Presence of other devices

Z97 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for presence of other devices. It belongs to block Z77-Z99 (persons with potential health hazards related to family and personal history and certain conditions influencing health status) and chapter 21 (factors influencing health status and contact with health services). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 7 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: Z97.0 (eye), Z97.1 ((partial)), Z97.2 ((partial)), Z97.3 (lenses), Z97.4 (hearing-aid), Z97.5 (device) and Z97.8 (devices).

Don't report Z97 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: complications of internal prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (T82-T85).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of Z97, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: fitting and adjustment of prosthetic and other devices (Z44-Z46) and presence of cerebrospinal fluid drainage device (Z98.2).

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