T86.831
BillableBone graft failure
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
A bone graft that was transplanted is not healing or integrating properly with the patient's existing bone.
Coding Tips
- •Bone graft failure differs from rejection; failure indicates the graft is not taking/healing, not an immune response
- •Document whether failure is primary (immediate) or secondary (delayed) if this information is available in the clinical record
