ICD-9-CM procedure code (retired)
00.81 — Revision of knee replacement, tibial component
About ICD-9-CM 00.81
00.81 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for revision of knee replacement, tibial component. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-PCS took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 16 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 0SPC08Z (Removal of Spacer from Right Knee Joint, Open Approach), 0SPC09Z (Removal of Liner from Right Knee Joint, Open Approach) and 0SPC48Z (Removal of Spacer from Right Knee Joint, Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one. Some mappings are combinations: more than one ICD-10 code is needed to fully express the ICD-9 code.
