About ICD-9-CM 900.89
900.89 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for injury to other specified blood vessels of head and neck. 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 S09.0XXA (Injury of blood vessels of head, not elsewhere classified, initial encounter) and S15.8XXA (Injury of other specified blood vessels at neck level, initial encounter). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
