About coding genitourinary tract foreign body
The ICD-10-CM code for genitourinary tract foreign body is T19.9 (Foreign body in genitourinary tract, part unspecified). The official index lists 10 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on T19.9.
Within T19, choose T19.9 (part unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: urethra (T19.0), bladder (T19.1), vulva and vagina (T19.2), uterus (T19.3), penis (T19.4) and other parts of genitourinary tract (T19.8).
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.
