About coding uterus traumatic rupture
The ICD-10-CM code for uterus traumatic rupture is S37.69 (Other injury of uterus). The official index lists 5 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on S37.69.
Within S37.6, choose S37.69 (Other injury of uterus) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: unspecified injury of uterus (S37.60), contusion of uterus (S37.62) and laceration of uterus (S37.63).
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.
