About coding stomach injury

The ICD-10-CM code for stomach injury is S36.30 (Unspecified injury of stomach). The official index lists 3 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on S36.30.

Within S36.3, choose S36.30 (Unspecified injury of stomach) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: contusion of stomach (S36.32), laceration of stomach (S36.33) and other injury of stomach (S36.39).

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.
