About ICD-9-CM 802.8
802.8 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for closed fracture of other facial bones. 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 S02.42XA (Fracture of alveolus of maxilla, initial encounter for closed fracture) and S02.92XA (Unspecified fracture of facial bones, initial encounter for closed fracture). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
