7th character
Category T75 requires a 7th character. T75.1 has only 4 characters, so a placeholder X fills the empty positions.
Guidelines tip
From the FY2027 Official Guidelines. ICD10Ref adds no rules of its own.
The 7th character depends on whether the patient is in active treatment, not on who sees the patient. An aftercare Z code is not used for injury aftercare.
