About coding foot sprain

The ICD-10-CM code for foot sprain is S93.60 (Unspecified sprain of foot). The official index lists 3 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on S93.60.

Within S93.6, choose S93.60 (Unspecified sprain of foot) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: sprain of tarsal ligament of foot (S93.61), sprain of tarsometatarsal ligament of foot (S93.62) and other sprain of foot (S93.69).

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.
