The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.
Used for medical claim reporting in all healthcare settings, ICD-10-CM is a standardized classification system of diagnosis codes that represent conditions and diseases, related health problems, abnormal findings, signs and symptoms, injuries, external causes of injuries and diseases, and social circumstances.
The new codes are for describing the infusion of tixagevimab and cilgavimab monoclonal antibody (code XW023X7), and the infusion of other new technology monoclonal antibody (code XW023Y7).

The swelling process, also known as edema, is the result of acute inflammation, a response triggered by damage to living tissues. In the case of injury, the purpose of the inflammatory response is to remove components of damaged tissue in order to allow the body to begin to heal.
Edema is swelling of soft tissues due to increased interstitial fluid. The fluid is predominantly water, but protein and cell-rich fluid can accumulate if there is infection or lymphatic obstruction. Edema may be generalized or local (eg, limited to a single extremity or part of an extremity).
M79. 89 converts approximately to one of the following ICD-9-CM codes: 729.81 - Swelling of limb. 729.99 - Other disorders of soft tissue.
Edema is swelling caused by excess fluid trapped in your body's tissues. Although edema can affect any part of your body, you may notice it more in your hands, arms, feet, ankles and legs.
Anasarca is a medical condition that leads to general swelling of the whole body. It happens when your body tissues retain too much fluid due to several reasons. It differs from other types of edema that affect one or two parts of the body. The condition is also known as extreme generalized edema or massive edema.

Angioedema, also known as angiooedema, Quincke's edema, and angioneurotic edema, is the rapid swelling (edema) of the dermis, subcutaneous tissue, mucosa and submucosal tissues. It is very similar to urticaria, but urticaria, commonly known as hives, occurs in the upper dermis.
This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code T78.3XXA and a single ICD9 code, 995.1 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
When selecting the appropriate ICD-10, you should choose the code that accurately reflects the initial confirmed diagnosis. The best code is the actual disease. Without a confirmed diagnosis, the next best is a sign or symptom. After that, other is the best option. The least appropriate code is unspecified.
The least appropriate code is unspecified. Only use unspecified when there is not a more definitive code. Reviewing the principles of ICD-10 and the classifications of uveitis will help ensure correct ...
The least appropriate code is unspecified. Only use unspecified when there is not a more definitive code. Code the diagnosis you know. Do not code probable, suspected, or questionable diagnoses, do not you rule out conditions until they are confirmed. These principles are relevant when coding for uveitis cases.
