About ICD-9-CM 017.96

017.96 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for tuberculosis of other specified organs, tubercle bacilli not found by bacteriological or histological examination, but tuberculosis confirmed by other methods [inoculation of animals]. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM took over.

The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 2 ICD-10-CM codes, such as A18.84 (Tuberculosis of heart) and A18.89 (Tuberculosis of other sites). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
