ICD-9 (Inernational Classification of Diseases) codes in the healthcare industry are used to categorize different diseases and medical conditions. The codes are standardized and used worldwide.
Icd 9 is the list of codes that doctors use to diagnois pt. just like the CPT codes are used for the procedures that docs do
non specific - not caused by any specific disease
ICD-9-CM diagnosis code 599.72 is for Microscopic hematuria. (hematuria = blood in the urine)
Cpt -31287 icd9- 461.3
CPT codes is the procedures codes done for the diagnosis. Here the diagnosis is cervical dystonia, so in order to find out diagnosis code you would have to look in the ICD9 codes book because it is diagnosis codes. Look up specific treatment for the cervical dystonia and then you can find the procedure in the CPT book.
Trichomoniasis is a condition, and doesn't have a procedure code, but a diagnosis code. The ICD9 codes for trich start with 131.
The ICD9-CM is based on the official version of the Work Health Organization's of ICD9. The U.S Department of Health and Human services maintains the official version for the US.
I wish I could more specifically answer your question but I cant without knowing what you are trying to code. Medical claims are billed with CPT codes which are either ICD9 or HCPCS codes. Depending on the type of claim you are filing it could be either... or both. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. Evan
