About coding Talon noir

The ICD-10-CM code for Talon noir is S90.3 (Contusion 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 S90.3.

Within S90 (superficial injury of ankle, foot and toes), S90.3 is specifically for contusion of foot. Related codes cover contusion of ankle (S90.0), contusion of toe without damage to nail (S90.1), contusion of toe with damage to nail (S90.2), other superficial injuries of toe (S90.4), other superficial injuries of ankle (S90.5), other superficial injuries of foot (S90.8) and unspecified superficial injury of ankle, foot and toe (S90.9).

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.

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of S90.3, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: contusion of toes (S90.1-, S90.2-).
