ICD-9-CM diagnosis code (retired)
823.92 — Open fracture of unspecified part of fibula with tibia
About ICD-9-CM 823.92
823.92 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for open fracture of unspecified part of fibula with tibia. 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 4 ICD-10-CM codes, such as S82.201B (Unspecified fracture of shaft of right tibia, initial encounter for open fracture type I or II), S82.202B (Unspecified fracture of shaft of left tibia, initial encounter for open fracture type I or II) and S82.401B (Unspecified fracture of shaft of right fibula, initial encounter for open fracture type I or II). 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.
