Official Coding Guidelines

Confirmed: add assault external cause and perpetrator; suspected: do not

For cases of confirmed abuse or neglect an external cause code from the assault section (X92-Y09) should be added to identify the cause of any physical injuries. A perpetrator code (Y07) should be added when the perpetrator of the abuse is known. For suspected cases of abuse or neglect, do not report external cause or perpetrator code.

— ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting, FY2026, Section I.C.19.f
Confirmed abuse with known perpetrator: add Y07 with assault codes

For confirmed cases of abuse, neglect and maltreatment, when the perpetrator is known, a code from Y07, Perpetrator of maltreatment and neglect, should accompany any other assault codes.
