The V code for a fistula is not a specific code, as V codes are typically used for factors influencing health status rather than specific diseases or conditions. Instead, medical coding for a fistula would typically involve using the appropriate ICD-10-CM code that describes the type and location of the fistula, such as K63.0 for an intestinal fistula.
