About coding bladder traumatic puncture
The ICD-10-CM code for bladder traumatic puncture is S37.29 (Other injury of bladder). The official index lists 1 more specific code, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on S37.29.
Within S37.2, choose S37.29 (Other injury of bladder) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: unspecified injury of bladder (S37.20), contusion of bladder (S37.22) and laceration of bladder (S37.23).
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.
