ICD-9 coding of DJD I agree with using 715.96 for the knee. I am a physician coder also. I have been taught, if my physician does not specify localized then to default to the unspecified. I was taught to code exactly what the physician says.
No. ICD-9 lists the code with the Â½ indicator, which means that you can use the code as a first-listed or additional diagnosis. Limit primary diagnosis: You should only list V72.6x as the primary diagnosis in the absence of any signs, symptoms, or associated diagnosis, according to ICD-9 official guidelines. NCD States V72.6 Doesn't Pay. Medicare's 23 Laboratory NCDs include lists of covered diagnosis for many common lab procedures.
