About ICD-9-CM 919.7

919.7 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for superficial foreign body (splinter) of other, multiple, and unspecified sites, without major open wound, infected. 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 L08.89 (Other specified local infections of the skin and subcutaneous tissue) and T07.XXXA (Unspecified multiple injuries, initial encounter). 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.
