Traumatic amputation of other finger(s) (complete) (partial), without mention of complication

This code signifies the complete or partial traumatic severance of one or more fingers, excluding the thumb, resulting from an injury. It specifically applies when there are no immediate complications such as infection or delayed healing mentioned in the documentation.

Use this code for patients presenting with an acute, non-complicated traumatic amputation of any finger(s) other than the thumb. Documentation should clearly state the finger(s) involved and confirm the absence of immediate complications like infection, gangrene, or foreign body.

• Differentiate from traumatic amputation of the thumb, which has a separate code.
• Ensure documentation explicitly states "without mention of complication" or similar to justify using this non-complicated code.
• If complications are present, a more specific code from the 886 series (e.g., 886.1) should be used.
