Present On Admission Exempt Codes

ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes exempt from POA reporting based on the official FY2026 CMS POA exempt list.

What POA exempt means

Every diagnosis on an inpatient claim normally carries a Present On Admission indicator: Y (present on admission), N (not present), U (documentation insufficient) or W (clinically undetermined). The indicator drives the CMS Hospital-Acquired Condition program, which can reduce payment when a qualifying condition was not present on admission.

Codes on this list are exempt because they never describe an acute condition that could develop during the stay. They cover external causes of injury, sequela (late effect) codes, and status or circumstance Z codes. For an exempt code the POA field is left blank on the UB-04 or 837I claim. Reporting Y, N, U or W for an exempt code can cause a claim edit.
