About ICD-9-CM 806.8

806.8 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for closed fracture of unspecified vertebral column with spinal cord injury. 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 8 ICD-10-CM codes, such as S12.9XXA (Fracture of neck, unspecified, initial encounter), S14.109A (Unspecified injury at unspecified level of cervical spinal cord, initial encounter) and S22.009A (Unspecified fracture of unspecified thoracic vertebra, initial encounter for closed fracture). 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.
